This part 2902 gives DOL-specific meanings for some of these words and 
terms and

[[Page 13]]

defines other words and terms commonly used in the DOL acquisition 
process.
    (b) The following words and terms are used as defined in this 
subpart unless the context in which they are used clearly requires a 
different meaning, or a different definition is prescribed for a 
particular part or portion of a part:
    Competition Advocate The Competition Advocate for the Department of 
Labor is appointed by the Assistant Secretary for Administration and 
Management and is defined in FAR 6.5 and 2906.5. If the appointee is 
recused from a procurement action, the Assistant Secretary for 
Administration and Management may designate another official to act in 
that capacity.
    Contracting Activity means an agency or component office within the 
Department of Labor with specific responsibility for managing contract 
functions pursuant to one or more warrants signed by the Senior 
Procurement Executive (or the Office of the Inspector General for its 
contracting activity).
    Contracting Officer's Technical Representative means the individual 
appointed by the contracting officer to represent the Department of 
Labor's programmatic interests on a Department of Labor contract, task 
order, or delivery order. This individual is responsible to the 
contracting officer for overseeing receipt and acceptance of goods/
services by the Government, reporting on the contractor's performance, 
and approving/disapproving payment to the contractor. Authority is 
otherwise limited to giving technical direction to the contractor within 
the framework of the contract (see 2901.603-71). This position may go by 
other titles, such as: a technical point of contact (TPOC) or Contacting 
Officer's Representative (COR).
    Head of Agency (also called agency head), for the FAR and DOLAR 
only, means the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management; 
except that the Secretary of Labor is the Head of Agency for acquisition 
actions, which by the terms of a statute or delegation must be performed 
specifically by the Secretary of Labor; the Inspector General is the 
Head of Agency in all cases for the Office of the Inspector General. 
Authority to act as the Head of Agency has been delegated to the 
Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training and the Assistant 
Secretary for Mine Safety and Health for their respective agencies. For 
purposes of the Economy Act (determinations and interagency agreements 
under FAR 17.5) only, the Employee Benefits Security Administration, 
Employment Standards Administration, Women's Bureau, Office of the 
Solicitor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Office of Disability Employment 
Policy, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration are 
delegated contracting authority.
    Head of Contracting Activity (HCA) means the official who has 
overall responsibility for managing the contracting activity, when the 
contracting activity has more than one person with a warrant issued by 
the Senior Procurement Executive. In the Department of Labor the 
following officials are the HCA for their respective organization:
    (i) For the Mine Safety and Health Administration, the Director, 
Administration and Management, MSHA.
    (ii) For the Employment and Training Administration, the Director, 
Office of Grants and Contract Management, ETA.
    (iii) For the Office of the Inspector General, the Director,
