SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose 

Subpart 27.4, Rights in Data and 

Copyrights is a regulation which 

concerns the rights of the Government 

and contractors with whom the 

Government contracts, regarding the 

use, reproduction, and disclosure of 

information developed under such 

contracts. The delineation of such rights 

is necessary in order to protect the 

contractor’s rights to not disclose 

proprietary data and to insure that data 

developed with public funds is 

available to the public. 

The information collection burdens 

and recordkeeping requirements 

included in this regulation fall into the 

following four categories: 

(a) A provision which is to be 

included in solicitations where the 

offeror would identify any proprietary 

data it would use during contract 

performance in order that the 

contracting officer might ascertain if 

such proprietary data should be 

delivered. 

(b) Contract provisions which, in 

unusual circumstances, would be 

included in a contract and require a 

contractor to deliver proprietary data to 

the Government for use in evaluating 

work results, or is software to be used 

in a Government computer. These 

situations would arise only when the 

very nature of the contractor’s work is 

comprised of limited rights data or 

restricted computer software and if the 

Government would need to see that data 

in order to determine the extent of the 

work. 

(c) A technical data certification for 

major systems, which requires the 

contractor to certify that the data 

delivered under the contract is 

complete, accurate and compliant with 

the requirements of the contract. As this 

provision is for major systems only, and 

few civilian agencies have such major 

systems, only about 30 contracts should 

require this certification. 

(d) The Additional Data Requirements 

clause, which is to be included in all 

contracts for experimental, 

developmental, research, or 

demonstration work (other than basic or 

applied research to be performed solely 

by a university or college where the 

contract amount will be $500,000 or 

less). The clause requires that the 

contractor keep all data first produced 

in the performance of the contract for a 

period of three years from the final 

acceptance of all items delivered under 

the contract. Much of this data will be 

in the form of deliverables provided to 

the Government under the contract 

(final report, drawings, specifications, 

etc.). Some data, however, will be in the 

form of computations, preliminary data, 

records of experiments, etc., and these 

will be the data that will be required to 

be kept over and above the deliverables. 

The purpose of such recordkeeping 

requirements is to insure that the 

Government can fully evaluate the 

research in order to ascertain future 

activities and to insure that the research 

was completed and fully reported, as 

well as to give the public an opportunity 

to assess the research results and secure 

any additional information. All data 

covered by this clause is unlimited 

rights data paid for by the Government. 

Paragraph (d) of the Rights in Data— 

General clause (52.227.14) outlines a 

procedure whereby a contracting officer 

can challenge restrictive markings on 

data delivered. Under civilian agency 

contracts, limited rights data or 

restricted computer software is rarely, if 

ever, delivered to the Government. 

Therefore, there may rarely be any 

challenges. Thus, there is no burden on 

the public.
