Reporting Executive Compensation and
First-Tier Subcontract Awards (FAR
Case 2008–039)
This interim rule amends the Federal
Acquisition Regulation to implement
section 2 of Federal Funding
Accountability and Transparency Act of
2006 (Pub. L. 109–282), as amended by
section 6202 of the Government
Funding Transparency Act of 2008 (Pub.
L. 110–252), which requires the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) to
establish a free, public, website
containing full disclosure of all Federal
contract award information. This rule
will require contractors to report
executive compensation and first-tier
subcontract awards on contracts and
orders expected to be $25,000 or more
(including all options), except classified
contracts and contracts with
individuals. This information will be
available to the public. To minimize the
burden implementing the Transparency
Act will impose on both Federal
agencies and contractors, the Councils
intend to implement the reporting
requirements in a phased approach:
1. Until September 30, 2010, any
newly awarded subcontract must be
reported if the prime contract award
amount was $20,000,000 or more.
2. From October 1, 2010, until
February 28, 2011, any newly awarded
subcontract must be reported if the

prime contract award amount was
$550,000 or more.
3. Starting March 1, 2011, any newly
awarded subcontract must be reported if
the prime contract award amount was
$25,000 or more.
The rule is applicable to all
solicitations and contracts with a value
of $25,000 or more. The clause is
required in commercial item contracts,
including commercially available offthe-shelf (COTS) item contracts, as well
as actions under the simplified
acquisition threshold, meeting the
$25,000 threshold. The clause is not
required in classified solicitations and
contracts, and contracts with
individuals.
