DFARS 211.106 Purchase descriptions for service contracts.

In plain English

This section requires agencies to write service contract purchase descriptions and requirements documents so that Government employees and contractor employees are clearly distinguished. It also requires service contracts to make contractor personnel identify themselves as contractor employees in meetings, phone calls, and written correspondence. This matters because it tells contractors what identification language their service contracts will contain and what their personnel must do.

Applies to: Agencies issuing service contracts and contractor personnel performing them

What it requires

• Contractor employees must identify themselves as contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as contractor personnel
• Contractor employees must display distinguishing badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel
