RTC-51930, 54564

Defect: Contracts are currently allowing null data for Congressional District for Vendor Congressional District and Place of Performance Congressional District. The functionality for the Vendor Congressional District will be modified to source the data directly from the SAM extract. The data will be stored on each contract action based on the date signed of the contract, to ensure that there is no discrepancy from the vendor SAM registration and what is saved within FPDS. For the Place of Performance Congressional District, FPDS will cleanse the ZIPInfo code tables and loading process to ensure that moving forward no invalid ZIP codes that have a blank Congressional District can be utilized on contract actions. Additionally, a defect will also be resolved when the Place of Performance ZIP Code provided is not being validated when the Place of Performance Country Code is ‘USA’ and the Reason for Modification is one of the Vendor Change Modifications. The Congressional District (CD) for the District of Columbia and the below listed five US Territories will be ‘98’.
1. American Samoa
2. Guam
3. Northern Mariana Islands
4. Puerto Rico
5. U.S. Virgin Islands
