Foreign Acquisition

The Department of the Army is amending the Department of the Army Acquisition Regulations (also referred to as the Army Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (AFARS)) to increase consistency in Army contracts that may require deployment of contractor personnel. This change is a consolidation and summarization of current information available in several documents, some of which are currently in draft form, and does not include new Army contracting policy. The purpose of this issuance is to notify interested parties of this change, and to request the public's comments. This change is issued by the Assistant Secretary of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology) (ASA(ALT)). This issuance is made concurrent with publication of an interim rule with request for comments to Solicitations Provisions and Contract Clauses, published in this issue of the Federal Register.
