FAR CLAUSES.pdf

This is a Smart Matrix Table from Acquisition.GOV that lists Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provisions and clauses with their applicability across different contract types and procurement vehicles.

The table presents 22 provisions and clauses spanning effective dates from April 1984 through May 2024, organized with columns indicating whether each clause is prescribed in the FAR, whether it applies to contracts (C) or proposals (P), and its applicability to Federal Pricing Supplement (FP SUP) and Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The clauses address substantive federal contracting requirements including security and supply chain concerns (Kaspersky Lab prohibition, telecommunications equipment representation, Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act orders), small business requirements (accelerated payments to subcontractors), compliance obligations (Iran-related activities, trafficking in persons, text messaging while driving), and commercial item procurement. All clauses shown are marked as "R" (Required) for both FP SUP and SAP columns. Notable recent additions include provisions addressing unmanned aircraft systems (November 2024) and encouraging contractor policies to ban text messaging while driving (May 2024). This matrix serves as a reference tool for contracting professionals to identify which FAR clauses must be incorporated into solicitations and resulting contracts based on contract type and procurement method.
