Competitive bids reveal the costs of a U.S. product are significantly higher than the non-domestic product The School Food Authority (SFA) must keep documentation justifying the exception(s).
9 USDA Memo SP Compliance & Enforcement of the Buy American Provision BEFORE USING AN EXCEPTION: Alternatives to purchasing non-domestic food products should be considered 1. Are there other domestic sources for this product? 2. Is there a domestic product that could easily be substituted, if the nondomestic product is less expensive (e.g. substitute domestic pears for nondomestic apples)? 3. Am I soliciting bids for this product at the best time of year? If I contracted earlier or later in the season, would prices and/or availability change?
10 USDA Memo SP Compliance & Enforcement of the Buy American Provision MONITORING BY THE SFA: Include the Buy American provision in solicitations, contacts, and product specifications, this ensures Contractors are aware of the Buy American requirements Bidder is responsive and responsible to the solicitation Best practice: Include language in the solicitation and contract on how the bidder would address alternative methods to conform to the Buy American provision, if needed. Solicitation and contract should include a method of requesting exceptions before supplying non-domestic products

14 TDA-Administrator s Reference Manual Updated 4/4/17: New Buy American Guidance Definition of Buy American: Requirement for schools to purchase, to the maximum extent practicable, domestic commodities and products. A domestic commodity or product means an agricultural commodity that is grown in the United States and processed in the United States or that is processed in the United States substantially using agricultural commodities that are produced in the Untied States. For a food product to meet the Buy American requirement, over 51% of the final processed food product must consist of agricultural commodities that were grown domestically. Applies to all purchases made with SNP funds. The Buy American requirement must be included in all contracts, requests for offers, and purchase orders with all potential contractors.
15 TDA-Administrator s Reference Manual Updated 4/4/17: New Buy American Guidance Considerations for a Buy American Exception: The CE/School District must determine that the use of non-united States (US) or non-domestic food product is acceptable (not the distributor, supplier or vendor). The purchase of non-domestic food product should be an occasional not frequent occurrence. Each time a non-domestic food product is purchased or delivered, the CE/School District must determine if the Buy American requirements are met. If the distributor, supplier, or vendor is repetitively unable to provide US or domestic food products, the CE/School District should discuss the Buy American requirements with the distributor, supplier, or vendor and determine if the entity is capable of fulfilling the terms and conditions of the contract.
16 TDA-Administrator s Reference Manual Updated 4/4/17: New Buy American Guidance Considerations for a Buy American Exception, continued: The CE/School District may purchase food products that are an exception to the Buy American provision, in the following situations: 1. The Food Product is not produced in sufficient quantities of a satisfactory quality 2. Competitive offers reveal that the cost of a domestic food product is significantly higher than the non-domestic food product
17 TDA-Administrator s Reference Manual Updated 4/4/17: New Buy American Guidance Considerations for a Buy American Exception, continued: The CE/School District must first determine if the food product is gown in the US or not:

19 TDA-Administrator s Reference Manual Updated 4/4/17: New Buy American Guidance Considerations for a Buy American Exception, continued: If the CE/School District purchases non-domestic food products, it must maintain documentation demonstration the situation that warrants on exception. TDA has developed the Buy American Checklist for Non-Domestic Food Product Purchases to assist CEs/School Districts in maintaining documentation. The CE/School District may verify that a food product is not grown in the US in sufficient quantities for purchase as a domestic food product through the USDA Agricultural Marketing Resource Center ( - use the search text box to find item. If the CE uses this source, it must retain documentation to demonstrate compliance. Reasonable cost is defined as the amount that does not exceed a cost that a prudent (sensible) person would consider acceptable under similar circumstances.
