effort to reduce compliance impacts that
do not achieve the benefits intended by
contracting statutes. As part of this
assessment, DPAP would like to receive
the views of interested parties
identifying particular impacts
associated with specific contracting
statutes. There is an extensive body of
law and regulation that govern the
Department’s business. We are seeking
to better understand the impact
experienced by industry resulting from
requirements based on statute. Our
initial review identified approximately
400 DFARS requirements based solely
on statute. The Director, DPAP, is
soliciting public input to identify
particular impacts associated with
specific contracting statutes, with
reference to—
• Particular impacts associated with
specific contracting statutes;
• Why the identified impact does not
achieve the intended benefit of the
identified legislation, or why the
intended benefit is not helpful to the
Department; and
• Any recommendations for
alternative approaches to achieve the
intended benefit of the identified
legislation.
We are also interested in candidate
DFARS and component supplements
requirements that, although not based in
statute, warrant similar consideration.
