Understanding The Buy American Act
Buy American Act
The Buy American Act (BAA) is a complicated law. Determining whether your product is compliant can be tricky, and requires a detailed analysis. Incorrectly certifying your product as BAA compliant can have a devastating impact upon your company. Incorrect certifications can lead to breach of contract claims, contract termination for default, reimbursing the Government for reprocurement costs, debarment from further contracting with the Government, and civil or criminal charges under the False Claims Act.This guide to the Buy American Act provides a detailed overview. Although the guide provides helpful information to assist you in understanding the BAA, it is not a substitute for knowledgeable counseling specific to your products.
