Contracting with the Government
Our Commitment
We follow all applicable regulations, Company policies and other requirements, including security procedures, that apply to doing business, directly or indirectly, with any government agency. The rules for supplying products and services to the government are stricter and more complex than those that govern our commercial dealings. We are committed to upholding our high standards of integrity and transparency at all times when working with government agencies.
How We Act with Integrity
- Retain all records and evidence relating to a government contract until the applicable retention period has ended.
- Familiarize yourself with the legal requirements and Company policies that apply to government contracts.
- Ensure our reports, certifications and statements are accurate, complete and submitted on time.
- Work with Global Sourcing and site procurement to ensure that we flow down any applicable government requirements to our suppliers.
- Submit inaccurate cost or pricing data.
- Use government equipment or supplies for a purpose outside of those stated in the contract.
- Attempt to obtain information on another contractor’s bid or proposal for a government contract.
- Transmit Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) other than in accordance with Company policy and procedure.
- Share classified information with anyone who does not have a business need to know and the appropriate government security clearance.
