0750-AK03 201804 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 0750 Defense Acquisition Regulations Council DARC 0700 Department of Defense DOD Repeal of DFARS clause "Option for Supervision and Inspection Services" (DFARS Case 2018-D041)

DoD is issuing a final rule to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to repeal the contract clause 252.236-7009, Option for Supervision and Inspection Services. The need for architect-engineers to perform supervision and inspection services during construction is not common within DoD. When it is necessary, an appropriate option that specifies the scope of services to be covered and other terms can be included in the contract, pursuant to FAR Subpart 17.2, Options. The DFARS clause is unnecessary and can be removed. The removal of this DFARS text supports a recommendation from the DoD Regulatory Reform Task Force.
