SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Summaries for each FAR rule follow. For the actual revisions and/or amendments made by these FAR rules, refer to the specific item numbers and subjects set forth in the documents following these item summaries. FAC 2025-04 amends the FAR as follows:
Item I-List of Domestically Nonavailable Articles (FAR Case 2020-009)
This final rule amends the FAR to revise the list of domestically nonavailable articles under the Buy American statute. The changes are not expected to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. It is expected that this rule will encourage small businesses to take an interest in building domestic manufacturing capabilities and capacity; this would be a positive impact though not a substantial impact.
Item II-Technical Amendments
Administrative changes are made at FAR 1.401, 17.703, 33.105, 52.101, 52.102, 52.300, 52.301.
