The Indian Health Service's Buy Indian Act Representation Form serves as a self-certification tool for Offerors asserting they qualify as an "Indian Economic Enterprise" when responding to solicitations, sources sought notices, or requests for information (RFIs). According to the Buy Indian Act, the Offerors must meet the definition of "Indian Economic Enterprise" at three critical points: when submitting an offer, at the award time, and throughout the contract period. Should eligibility requirements change at any time, immediate notification to the Contracting Officer is mandatory. The document highlights that inaccurate information can lead to legal consequences, including violations of federal law regarding false statements and claims. To be eligible for contracts under this Act, Offerors must also be registered with the System of Award Management (SAM). The representation requires Offerors to indicate whether they meet the definition of an "Indian Economic Enterprise" alongside their business details. This process underscores the government's commitment to supporting Native American-owned businesses in federal contracting opportunities.
