Many projects that utilize federal funds require domestically sourced/procured products. This includes goods the U.S. Government buys for its own use, as well as some goods not purchased directly by the U.S. Government, but that utilize federal funds or grants. These rules can also apply to some projects funded by states or cities.

Do you have a Cree Lighting product(s) that you’d like evaluated for BAA or BABA compliance?

BAA icon

Buy America(n) (BAA): Requirements apply to direct purchases by the U.S. Federal government valued at more than $10,000 USD. For lighting products to qualify, the product must be manufactured in the U.S. AND the cost of its components that are mined, produced, or manufactured in the U.S. must be greater than 65% of the total cost of all its components. 

A Commercially Available Off-The-Shelf (COTS) waiver can be used in certain cases when products do not meet the requirements of the Buy American Act (BAA).

If a product is classified as COTS and falls under the COTS waiver provisions, it can be purchased by the federal government without meeting the BAA’s domestic content requirements. This provides flexibility for procuring commercially available products while still maintaining the overarching goals of supporting U.S. manufacturing where practical.

BABA icon

Build America, Buy America (BABA): Enacted under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), BABA applies to certain federally funded projects. BABA requirements apply to purchases of iron and steel, construction materials and manufactured products permanently incorporated into infrastructure projects. Our luminaires are evaluated as manufactured products. To qualify, the product must be manufactured in the U.S. AND the cost of its components that are mined, produced, or manufactured in the U.S. must be greater than 55% of the total cost of all its components. 

Note: There could be an existing law that imposes a higher percentage for a specific product. (e.g. FAA: 100%, FTA: 70%, etc.)
