This text is not in eCFR or DITA. It is extracted from the .docx attachment for Class Deviation 2026-O0022, which directs contracting officers to use it in place of the codified PGI. The parsed text is a convenience layer; the .docx attachment is authoritative.

Unusual progress payment arrangements require the advance approval of the Principal Director, Defense Pricing, Contracting, and Acquisition Policy (DPCAP). Contracting officers must submit all unusual progress payment requests to the department or agency contract financing office for approval and submission to DPCAP.
