Contract Pricing Data Transparency Act

This bill requires federal agencies to record in the System for Award Management (specifically the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System) when contractors deny requests for pricing data. It directly affects federal contractors who refuse to provide such data during procurement processes. The key change mandates that this information be "included" (replacing a previous optional "may include" provision), making it a standard part of contractor performance records. This increases transparency for government buyers by making it easier to identify contractors with a history of withholding pricing information.
