      Subpart B_Appropriate Use of Technology Investment Agreements

 

Sec.  37.200  What are my responsibilities as an agreements officer for 

ensuring the appropriate use of TIAs?





    You must ensure that you use TIAs only in appropriate situations. To 

do so, you must conclude that the use of a TIA is justified based on:

    (a) The nature of the project, as discussed in Sec.  37.205;

    (b) The type of recipient, addressed in Sec.  37.210;

    (c) The recipient's commitment and cost sharing, as described in 

Sec.  37.215;

    (d) The degree of involvement of the Government program official, as 

discussed in Sec.  37.220; and

    (e) Your judgment that the use of a TIA could benefit defense 

research objectives in ways that likely would not happen if another type 

of assistance instrument were used. Your answers to the four questions 

in Sec.  37.225 should be the basis for your judgment.
