Federal Acquisition Regulation; Applicability of the Cost Principles and Penalties for Unallowable Costs

Streszczenie

The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) are proposing to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to remove the requirement to apply cost principles and procedures when pricing a contract if cost or pricing data are not obtained, and to increase the contract dollar threshold for assessing a penalty if the contractor includes expressly unallowable costs in its claim for reimbursement.
