FAR and DFARS › DFARS Part 232: Contract Financing › Subpart 232.7

DFARS 232.706-70 Clause for limitation of Government's obligation.

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 to include the clause at 252.232-7007, Limitation of Government's Obligation, in solicitations and in the resulting incrementally funded fixed-price contracts. It also lets the contracting officer shorten the contractor's notification period in paragraph (c) of that clause from ninety days to thirty or sixty days. This matters because it affects how and when a contractor must notify the Government under an incrementally funded contract.

Applies to: Solicitations and resultant incrementally funded fixed-price contracts

What it requires
