Why BABA Compliance Matters for Federally Funded Projects
BABA (Build America Buy America) compliance is a key requirement for many federally funded infrastructure projects, including those supported through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and programs administered by agencies such as FHWA, EPA, HUD, and NTIA. For contractors, engineers, and municipalities, selecting BABA-compliant products helps reduce approval risk, avoid project delays, and ensure continued eligibility for federal funding.
NDS manufactures a range of products in the United States that can support BABA compliance for qualifying projects. Product eligibility may vary by application and funding source, which is why proper documentation and certification remain an important part of the procurement process.
