Covered transactions under this part—
Do not include any procurement contracts awarded directly by a Federal agency; but
Do include some procurement contracts awarded by non-Federal participants in nonprocurement covered transactions.
Specifically, a contract for goods or services is a covered transaction if any of the following applies:
The contract is awarded by a participant in a nonprocurement transaction that is covered under § 180.210, and the amount of the contract is expected to equal or exceed $25,000.
The contract requires the consent of an official of a Federal agency. In that case, the contract, regardless of the amount, always is a covered transaction, and it does not matter who awarded it. For example, it could be a subcontract awarded by a contractor at a tier below a nonprocurement transaction, as shown in the appendix to this part.
The contract is for Federally-required audit services.
A subcontract also is a covered transaction if,—
It is awarded by a participant in a procurement transaction under a nonprocurement transaction of a Federal agency that extends the coverage of paragraph (b)(1) of this section to additional tiers of contracts (see the diagram in the appendix to this part showing that optional lower tier coverage); and
The value of the subcontract is expected to equal or exceed $25,000.
