Patent & IP Indemnity Compliance Support

The contract seeks specialized legal compliance support to ensure the prime contractor adheres to FAR 52.227-6 patent indemnity requirements, safeguarding the government against intellectual property infringement claims arising from contractor-developed technologies or deliverables. This support involves assessing, documenting, and validating the prime’s IP practices to confirm full alignment with federal regulations, mitigating legal exposure and ensuring the government’s protection from third-party patent litigation. This is a total small business set-aside under the SBA program, exclusively available to small businesses classified under NAICS code 541110 for legal services. The opportunity was posted on July 23, 2026, with a response deadline of August 7, 2026, and is administered by the Department of Veterans Affairs through the 247-NETWORK Contract Office 7. The work is expected to be performed remotely or at the contractor’s facility, with no specified place of performance. The contract is structured as a subcontract, indicating it supports a larger federal prime contract where patent indemnity compliance is a mandated condition for award and performance.
