## Abstract

DoD has issued a final rule amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to remove the Trade Agreements Act and the Buy American Act from the list of laws inapplicable to subcontracts for commercial items. This rule is a result of a transformation initiative undertaken by DoD to dramatically change the purpose and content of the DFARS.
