Radisys Build America Buy America (BABA) Certification

On February 23, 2024, the United States Department of Commerce issued a limited, general applicability, nonavailability waiver of the BABA preference requirements for the BEAD Program for certain construction materials and certain manufactured products. To ensure conformity with the waiver, NTIA has created a self-certification and compliance framework for manufacturers. As a result, the Department of Commerce is publishing and maintaining a list of manufacturers where an officer of the company has certified certain individual products it produces. In accordance with this process, subject to fine or imprisonment - under the Program Fraud Civil Remedies Act (31 U.S.C. § 3801 et seq.) and the False Claims Amendments Act of 1986 and the False Statements Accountability Act of 1996 (18 U.S.C. §§ 287 and 1001, respectively), Radisys certifies that it will be compliant with the BABA waiver for the BEAD Program. Radisys certifies that the equipment listed below will meet the domestic manufacturing requirements outlined in the BABA waiver from January 2027.
