FAR RIN: 9000-AL68 Publication ID: Spring 2011 
Title: FAR Case 2009-020, Offering a Construction Requirement-8(a) Program 
Abstract: DoD, GSA, and NASA have agreed on a final rule amending the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to revise FAR subpart 19.8, Contracting with the Small Business Administration (The 8(a) Program), to conform to the Small Business Administration (SBA) regulations. The FAR Council did not publish this rule for comment because this change already exists in the Small Business Administration Regulations, as of January 1, 2009, and the FAR is being updated to conform to their regulations. This revision changes the location for submitting offering letters to SBA for a construction requirement for which no specific Participant is nominated and impacts internal procedures that the contracting officer is now required to follow.
