Abstract: This clearance covers the information that offerors and contractors must submit to comply with the following FAR requirements: ● FAR 27.303(b)(2). This section allows the contracting officer to modify or supplement the FAR clause at 52.227-11(e) to require the contractor to provide certain information. ● FAR 52.227-2. This clause requires contractors to notify the Government of any allegations of patent or copyright infringement arising during the performance of the contract. The clause requires contractors to furnish, when requested by the contracting officer, all evidence and information in the contractor’s possession regarding such a claim or suit. ● FAR 52.227-6. This provision requires offerors to report all royalties anticipated or paid more than $250 for the use of patented inventions. ● FAR 52.227-9. This clause requires contractors to furnish to the contracting officer, before final payment under a contract, a statement of royalties paid or required to be paid in connection with performing the contract. ● FAR 52.227-11, 52.227-13. These FAR clauses require a Government contractor to report all inventions made in the performance of work under a Government contract or subcontract for experimental, developmental, or research work to the contracting officer, submit a disclosure of the invention, and identify any publication, sale, or public use of the invention (52.227–11(c), 52.227–13(e)(1)). ● FAR 52.227-14. This clause enables the contractor to protect qualifying limited rights data and restricted computer software by withholding the data from the Government and instead delivering form, fit, and function data. ● FAR 52.227-15. This provision requires an offeror to represent that it has reviewed the requirements for the delivery of technical data or computer software and state, in response to a solicitation, whether data proposed for fulfilling the data delivery requirements qualifies as limited rights data or restricted computer software. ● FAR 52.227-16. This clause requires contractors to keep, for possible delivery to the Government, any data, in addition to data already required to be delivered under the contract, first produced or specifically used in performance of the contract for a period of three years from the final acceptance of all items delivered under the contract. ● FAR 52.227-17. This clause is included in solicitations and contracts primarily for production or compilation of data. ● FAR 52.227-18. This clause is used when the Government acquires existing audiovisual or similar works, such as books, without modification. ● FAR 52.227-19. This clause requires contractors to affix notice on any commercial software delivered under the contract that provides notice that the Government’s rights regarding the data are set forth in the contract. ● FAR 52.227-20. This clause authorizes contractors under Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contracts to affix a notice to SBIR data delivered under the contract to limit the Government’s rights to disclose data first produced under the contract. ● FAR 52.227-21. This clause requires major systems contractors to certify that the data delivered under the contract is complete, accurate, and compliant with the requirements of the contract. ● FAR 52.227-23. This clause allows the Government to identify pages of a proposal that would not be subject to unlimited rights in the technical data.
