Clear, Confident Support for Your Government and Federally Funded Projects.
At Shat-R-Shield, we understand that compliance isn’t optional; it’s essential to winning contracts, avoiding costly delays, and keeping your projects on schedule. That’s why our products are engineered and documented to meet the critical domestic content standards required under the Build America, Buy America Act (BABA), the Buy American Act (BAA), and the Trade Agreements Act (TAA).
Our compliance framework is rooted in verifiable manufacturing and documentation practices. We maintain rigorous quality and country-of-origin tracking, ensuring your team has the necessary evidence to support compliance submissions. All compliance claims are backed by clear product lineage and documentation, and are available upon request.
To make registering your projects and verifying eligibility seamless, we’ve created a straightforward Compliance Checklist that aligns with BABA, BAA, and TAA requirements. Download now and begin organizing your project documentation with confidence.
Requires that manufactured products and construction materials used in federally funded infrastructure projects meet specified domestic manufacturing and content requirements.
Establishes a preference for goods manufactured in the United States in direct federal government procurement, subject to defined domestic content thresholds and waivers.
Permits the U.S. government to procure products that are manufactured or substantially transformed in the United States or in designated trade-agreement countries for eligible federal contracts.
Our BABA-compliant lighting products are manufactured in the United States to align with federal infrastructure funding requirements. We review our manufacturing and assembly processes to ensure they meet applicable BABA guidance.
BAA compliance means our lighting products are manufactured in the United States and meet the required domestic content threshold under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). In general, this requires that at least 60% or more of the total cost of components be domestically sourced, with the final product manufactured in the U.S. (Note: this percentage is subject to increase under current FAR regulations.) BAA compliance allows our products to be specified for federal government procurement projects.
TAA compliance means our lighting products are manufactured or substantially transformed in the United States or a designated TAA-compliant country. Unlike Buy America requirements, TAA does not require a specific domestic content percentage; compliance is based on substantial transformation that results in a new and distinct product. This allows our TAA-compliant products to be specified for U.S. government and federally funded projects.
Buy America Act (BAA) Compliance requires a specific domestic content percentage. BAA requires that at least 60% or more of the total cost of components be domestically sourced, with the final product manufactured in the U.S. Trade Agreements Act (TAA) Compliance does not require a specific domestic content percentage. Instead, compliance is based on the product being “manufactured or substantially transformed” in the United States or a designated TAA-compliant country, resulting in a new and distinct product.
