PGI 242.1203 Processing agreements.

(2) Lists of affected contracts accompanying a notice of successor in interest should include the information at FAR 42.1204(e)(2).

(3) Lists of affected contracts accompanying a notice of a name change should include the information at FAR 42.1205(a)(3).

(5) Before making any substantial alterations or additions to the novation agreement format at FAR 42.1204(i), coordinate with the addressees in paragraph (1) of this section that have contracts with the contractor. Resolve any objections before executing the agreement.

(6) If the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) wants a separate agreement with the contractor, continue to process the agreement only for DoD.

(7) In addition to the requirements of FAR 42.1203(g) and PGI 204.201 , make distribution to—

(i) The physical address or a copy to the email addresses in paragraph (1) of this section; and

(8) In addition to the distribution requirements of FAR 42.1203(h)(4) and PGI 204.201

(i) Send two copies to the physical address or a copy to the email addresses in paragraph (1) of this section. The list of contracts may be confined to those issued by that department.

(ii) Do not send copies to NASA or the commands in paragraph (7)(ii) of this section. They will issue their own modifications.

(9) Report the novation agreement or name change modification for each of the affected contracts to FPDS (see PGI 204.606 (4)(iv) and (v)).

(10) The contracting officer responsible for execution of a change-of-name agreement (see FAR Subpart 42.12) must submit the agreement to DLIS-SBB. If there are no current contracts, each contracting and contract administration office receiving notification of changes from the commercial entity must forward a copy of the change notice annotated with the CAGE code to DLIS-SBB unless the change notice indicates that DLIS-SBB already has been notified.
