FAR 3.101-2 is the rule that says government workers shouldn't take gifts from people doing business with them. It helps keep things fair and honest.
FAR 3.101-2 is about avoiding conflicts of interest. It says government workers can’t accept gifts or favors from contractors. This helps make sure decisions are fair and based on what's best for the government, not personal gain. Just like a referee must stay neutral in a game, government workers must stay neutral when choosing who gets a contract.
FAR 3.101-2 explains that government workers can't accept gifts or favors from contractors. This rule helps keep things fair and honest in federal contracting. It means no free lunches, tickets, or special treatment when you're working with the government. This protects the process from bias or bad choices. Following this helps build trust and avoids conflicts of interest in government acquisitions.
A common mistake with FAR 3.101-2 is not spotting personal conflicts of interest early. Some people forget to ask if employees have ties to the contractor, like family or financial connections. Others think a simple disclosure is enough, but they don’t take action to fix the issue. Ignoring these problems can lead to ethics violations or canceled contracts. Always check connections and take steps to stay fair. This helps protect both the agency and the work being done.
