## Abstract

The Department of Energy (DOE) is amending the Department of Energy Acquisition Regulation (DEAR) to provide a standardized authorization and associated contract clause for use by DOE contractors when performing work for non-DOE entities. These requirements include a paperwork burden in the form of a summary listing of project information for each active Work for Others project, identifying (i) Sponsoring agency; (ii) Total estimated costs; (iii) Project title and description; (iv) Project point of contact; and, (v) Estimated start and completion dates. The requirements and procedures previously delineated in DOE Directives have been extensively reviewed and revised to ensure every effort to decrease overly prescriptive guidance previously contained in the DOE Order. Revised contractor program requirements previously found in DOE Order 481.1B are being relocated to the DEAR. The objective of this effort is to ensure that authorization to perform non-DOE funded work is performed in a consistent and uniform manner, while ensuring that the DOE's program continues to be compliant with applicable laws regulations and statutes. No change in the Department's Work for Others policy is being made.
