If a contract is issued with a DPAS priority rating, KSD GovCon LLC will only use manufacturers who formally acknowledge and accept DPAS-rated orders. If a supplier cannot comply with DPAS terms, their product will not be used unless a formal waiver is obtained from the contracting authority before fulfillment.
For contracts involving DPAS, TAA, BAA, Berry Amendment, or Kissell Amendment restrictions, KSD GovCon LLC may pursue a waiver if no compliant product is available or if the urgency of the mission demands flexibility. However, waiver approval is not guaranteed. To maximize award competitiveness, all suppliers are strongly encouraged to provide U.S.-manufactured goods and maintain strict compliance with FAR and DFARS sourcing rules.
It is critically important that the country of origin is disclosed at the time of quote submission. Failure to provide this information may result in automatic disqualification of the bid or a finding of non-compliance. KSD GovCon LLC will not submit any offer to the government without clearly stated origin data to ensure full compliance with all federal acquisition laws and regulations.
