Q301--Reference Lab Services - BCVAMC & WCBOC PoP 08/01/2026-07/31 Implementing EO 14398 DEI Discrimination.
The amendment adds a new contract clause implementing EO 14398, which prohibits contractors from engaging in racially discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) activities during performance. Contractors must also provide compliance information and reports to the Contracting Officer, report subcontractor conduct that may violate the clause, and take remedial actions as directed. Noncompliance can lead to contract cancellation, termination, suspension, or ineligibility for future government contracts. The clause must be included in all subcontracts, except those performed outside the United States. No other changes to the solicitation are made; no timelines, budget amounts, or performance locations are specified.
