This document is a "Limitations on Subcontracting Review" letter and form. Its purpose is to request information from contractors to confirm their compliance with FAR Clause 52.219-14 (Deviation 202600038) regarding limitations on subcontracting. The government requires confirmation that contractors will not pay more than 50 percent of the contract performance amount to subcontractors that are not similarly situated entities.

• Section III: Requires a breakout of materials and other direct costs, if applicable, and their percentage of the total contract value. For service contracts, it requires a list and rationale for "Other Direct Costs."
• Section IV: Contractor Certification, where the contractor attests to the truthfulness of the provided information.

Bidders must understand and complete this form to demonstrate compliance with subcontracting limitations. Failure to comply can result in penalties.
