FAR 22.608 Procedures.
The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.
In plain English
This section tells contracting officers what to do when awarding a contract covered by the statute and when a required stipulation is violated. It matters to contractors because they will receive a Department of Labor notice about the contract, and violations can be reported to the Wage and Hour Division.
