Title: FAR Case 2009-004, Enhancing Contract Transparency 
Abstract: DoD, GSA, and NASA sought information that would assist in determining how best to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to enable public posting of contract actions, should such posting become a requirement in the future, without compromising contractors proprietary and confidential commercial or financial information. Upon review of public comments and after consultation with FAR agencies, DoD, GSA, and NASA agreed to close this case because the results of the analysis showed that the systems that already exist provide the information that would be obtained if the rule were to go forward and what existing systems don't provide can be obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
