FAR and DFARS › DFARS Part 252: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 252.2

DFARS 252.204-7003 Control of government personnel work product.

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 clause prevents a contractor's information-protection procedures from requiring DoD employees or Armed Forces members to give up control of their work products to the contractor. It matters because it limits what a contractor can demand of government personnel when handling information.

Applies to: Contractors with procedures for protecting against unauthorized disclosure of information
