View Rule

DoD is proposing to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to expand the prescription for use of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.245.1, Government Property, to apply to all purchase orders for repair regardless of the acquisition cost of the items to be repaired. Currently, this clause is not required for use in purchase orders for repair when the unit acquisition cost of Government property to be repaired does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT); however, acquisition value alone is not an indicator of the criticality or sensitivity of Government property items. DoD does not expect this rule to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
