Abstract: This information collection concerns organizational conflicts of interest in Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs). This collection requirement is necessary to implement section 207 of the Weapon Systems Acquisition Reform Act of 2009 (WSARA). Section 207 requires that DoD provide uniform guidance in the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) and tighten existing requirements for organizational conflicts of interest (OCIs) by contractors in major defense programs. This statutory requirement is implemented in DFARS 209.571-8 and the associated solicitation provision 252.209-7008, Notice of Prohibition Relating to Organizational Conflict of Interest–Major Defense Acquisition Program. In order to comply with the statute, DFARS provision 252.209-7008 requires an offeror to submit a mitigation plan if requesting an exemption from the statutory limitation on future contracting.
