BAA/BABA

Our BAA/BABA icon indicates a product family that has versions available that meet “Buy America(n)” (BAA) and/or “Build America, Buy America” (BABA) requirements. BAA commonly applies to direct purchases made by the U.S. federal government, where BABA can apply to certain federally funded projects, which are not directly procured by the federal government.

Buy American

BABA is "Build America, Buy America". It's part of an IIJA Federal law (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act) which was a $1.2 trillion federal investment. BAA is "Buy American Act" which has the same requirements.

BABA

This act, part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, requires that all materials used in federally-funded infrastructure projects are produced in the United States. This includes iron, steel, manufactured products, and construction materials.
