§103 Commercial Product

Summary

Defines "commercial product" to mean six kinds of items. First, anything except land that people or private groups normally use for non-government purposes and that has been sold, leased, licensed, or offered to the public. Second, a new version of such a product that grew from commercial technology and isn’t yet on the market but will be available in time to meet a federal delivery schedule. Third, a product that would qualify except for common market options or small changes made to meet government needs. Fourth, a normal package of such products sold together. Fifth, the same products still count if they move among a contractor’s divisions. Sixth, a nondevelopmental item also counts if the buying agency finds, under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, that it was developed only with private funds and has been sold in substantial quantities, competitively, to multiple State and local governments or to multiple foreign governments.
