Under Executive Order XXXX, the Federal government is undertaking the first comprehensive overhaul of the FAR in over 40 years.

Led by the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) and the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council, this initiative will eliminate burdensome and outdated requirements, remove non-statutory rules, and replace them with practical buying guides and plain-language regulations.

The goal is clear: faster acquisitions, greater competition, and better results.

Revised FAR Parts

OFPP is issuing revised FAR parts as model FAR deviation guidance. These simplified parts can be adopted immediately by agencies until the FAR is revised during the formal rulemaking process.

Buying Guides

As the FAR is overhauled/simplified, helpful but non-regulatory content will be moved to new Buying Guides, designed to support smarter, faster acquisitions aligned with the overhauled/simplified FAR.
