10 C.F.R. § 603.200 Contracting officer responsibilities.
Title 10 - Energy
Contracting officers may use a TIA only in appropriate situations. To do so, the use of a TIA must be justified based on: (a) The nature of the project, as discussed in §603.205; (b) The type of recipient, addressed in §603.210; (c) The recipient's commitment and cost sharing, as described in §603.215; (d) The degree of involvement of the Government program official, as discussed in §603.220; and (e) The contracting officer's judgment that the use of a TIA could benefit the RD&D objectives in ways that likely would not happen if another type of instrument were used (i.e., a contract, grant or cooperative agreement is not feasible or appropriate). Answers to the four questions in §603.225 form the basis for the contracting officer's judgment. [71 FR 27161, May 9, 2006; 71 FR 29219, May 19, 2006]
