           Subpart 32.1_Non-Commercial Item Purchase Financing

 

Sec. 32.107  Need for contract financing not a deterrent.



    (a) If the contractor or offeror meets the standards prescribed for 

responsible prospective contractors at 9.104, the contracting officer 

shall not treat the contractor's need for contract financing as a 

handicap for a contract award; e.g., as a responsibility factor or 

evaluation criterion.

    (b) The contractor should not be disqualified from contract 

financing solely because the contractor failed to indicate a need for 

contract financing before the contract was awarded.
