FAR RIN: 9000-AO65 Publication ID: Fall 2024 
Title: Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR); FAR Case 2023-014, Small Business Protests 
Abstract:

This rule will clarify the parties that may protest the size and/or socioeconomic status of a small business concern, specify the deadlines for submitting a protest, add the Small Business Administration (SBA) Associate General Counsel for Procurement Law to the list of parties than can request a formal size determination, and make other clarifying amendments regarding small business protest procedures. This rule also requires a concern found to be ineligible for the status it claims, as a result of a protest, to update SAM within two days of the ineligibility determination. This rule will implement the SBA’s final rule published April 2023 which implemented section 863 of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2022.
