How can parties accurately and completely report all classified contracts as required by 31 C.F.R. § 800.502(c)(3)(iii)?

The notice should identify all classified contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, lease agreements, service agreements, etc. (“classified contracts”), that contain a “Security Requirements Clause” (FAR 52.204-2 or similar clause) or include a Contract Security Classification Specification (DD Form 254).  The clause identifies the contract as involving classified information, and the DD Form 254 provides classification guidance.  Therefore, parties should report each contract that contains a Security Requirements Clause, has a DD Form 254, requires or will require access to classified information by a contractor or its personnel in the performance of the contract, or requires the contractor or its personnel to have security clearances.  Note that a contract may be a classified contract (in that the nature of the subject goods or services to be performed under the contract are classified) even though the contract document itself is not classified.
