DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURYWASHINGTON, D.C. 20220Date: July 14, 2020MEMORANDUM FOR TREASURY ACQUISITION PERSONNELFROM:MICHELE D. SHARPE,ACTING SENIOR PROCUREMENT EXECUTIVEOFFICE OF THE PROCUREMENT EXECUTIVESUBJECT: Class Deviation – Implement the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement(USMCA), as enacted by Congress in the United States-Mexico-Canada AgreementImplementation Act (Pub. L. 116-113).A. PURPOSE. The objective of this deviation is to implement the United States-MexicoCanada Agreement (USMCA), as enacted by Congress in the United States-Mexico-CanadaAgreement Implementation Act (Pub. L. 116-113).B. OVERVIEW. The Acting Senior Procurement Executive has approved a class deviation,pending publication of the amendment to the FAR via CAAC Letter 2020-05, FAR Text2020-014, implementing the USMCA. The USMCA is effective July 1, 2020. It supersedesthe North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), therefore references to NAFTA arereplaced with USMCA. Although Canada is still a designated country under the WorldTrade Organization Government Procurement Agreement, Canada is no longer a Free TradeAgreement country, because chapter 13 of the USMCA (government procurement) appliesonly to the United States and Mexico. Therefore, references to Canada as a Free TradeAgreement country are deleted, including the 25,000 threshold. Mexico thresholds remainunchanged. All Treasury bureaus shall apply the guidance set forth in Attachment A, andshall include the associated clauses, as applicable, in solicitations issued on or after the dateof this memorandum.C. ACTION. Bureaus should apply the relevant FAR provisions as they have been edited inAttachment A.D. EFFECTIVE. ImmediatelyQuestions related to this deviation can be directed to Mr. Steven Kvalevog who can be reached atSteven.Kvalevog@treasury.gov or officeoftheprocurementexecutive@treasury.gov

Attachment A27.204Patented technology under trade agreements.27.204-1Use of patented technology under the North AmericanFree Trade Agreement[United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement].(a) The requirements of this section apply to the use oftechnology covered by a valid patent when the patent holder isfrom a country that is a party to the North American Free TradeAgreement (NAFTA).(b) Article 1709(10) of NAFTA generally requires a user oftechnology covered by a valid patent to make a reasonable effortto obtain authorization prior to use of the patented technology.However, NAFTA provides that this requirement for authorizationmay be waived in situations of national emergency or othercircumstances of extreme urgency, or for public noncommercialuse.(c) Section 6 of Executive Order 12889, “Implementation of theNorth American Free Trade Act,” of December 27, 1993, waives therequirement to obtain advance authorization for an inventionused or manufactured by or for the Federal Government. However,the patent owner shall be notified in advance whenever theagency or its contractor knows or has reasonable grounds toknow, without making a patent search, that an inventiondescribed in and covered by a valid U.S. patent is or will beused or manufactured without a license. In cases of nationalemergency or other circumstances of extreme urgency, thisnotification need not be made in advance, but shall be made assoon as reasonably practicable.(d) The contracting officer, in consultation with the officehaving cognizance of patent matters, shall ensure compliancewith the notice requirements of NAFTA Article 1709(10) andExecutive Order 12889. A contract award should not be suspendedpending notification to the patent owner.(e) Section 6(c) of Executive Order 12889 provides that thenotice to the patent owner does not constitute an admission ofinfringement of a valid privately-owned patent.(f) When addressing issues regarding compensation for the use ofpatented technology, Government personnel should be advised thatNAFTA uses the term “adequate remuneration.” Executive Order12889 equates “remuneration” to “reasonable and entirecompensation” as used in 28 U.S.C. 1498, the statute that givesPage 10 of 27
