DoD is proposing to amend the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to implement paragraphs (b) and (c) of section 849 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2018, to eliminate certain contract clause requirements applicable to FAR part 12 commercial item acquisitions and COTS item subcontracts unless the Secretary of Defense determines that there is a specific reason not to eliminate the regulation.  Also implements paragraph (a) of section 837(a) of the NDAA for FY 2019, which revises 10 U.S.C. 2375(b)(2), redesignated as 10 U.S.C. 3452, by deleting January 1, 2015, and adding the date October 13, 1994, to eliminate certain solicitation provisions and contract clauses enacted after October 13, 1994, from commercial solicitations and contracts, unless the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment makes a written determination that it would not be in the best interest of DoD to exclude them.
