Summary
This revision to Class Deviation 2026-O0041 replaces the prior version issued 2026-02-03. It implements section 848 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2026, removes Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 225.7021 and associated provisions and clauses, updates trade agreement thresholds and makes minor corrections to DFARS Part 225 and Procedures, Guidance, and Information (PGI) 225. Contracting officers must use the revised Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 25 from the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) web page, the attached DFARS Part 225 and the attached PGI 225 in lieu of the currently codified or published texts.
