Built by the Tribune's code from the Federal Register. No AI wrote this page. Published in the Federal Register Sept. 18, 2026. Document 2026-19159. Updated Nov. 5, 2026.

What it does

OFPP, DoD, GSA, and NASA (collectively referred to as the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council or FAR Council) are proposing to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to implement Executive Order (E.O.) 14275, Restoring Common Sense to Federal Procurement. The E.O. directs the elimination of excessive acquisition regulations to stop the inefficient use of American taxpayer dollars. The FAR Council is issuing twelve proposed rules that collectively, if finalized, would streamline the FAR in its entirety. This rule proposes revisions to FAR parts 9, 27, 47, and 52.
