About this file

This is a Notice of FAR Class Deviation implementing changes to federal acquisition regulations under Executive Order 14148 and Executive Order 14208, effective February 10, 2025. The notice addresses system lag issues between policy updates and the System for Award Management (SAM), clarifying that while SAM may continue to require entities to complete certain representations—specifically provision 52.223-22 regarding public disclosure of greenhouse gas emissions and reduction goals, and paragraph (t) of 52.212-3 concerning offeror representations and certifications for commercial products and services—contracting officers will not consider these representations in award decisions or enforce associated requirements. Entities are not required to update their SAM registrations to remove these representations.
