DFARS 252.232-7002 Progress Payments for Foreign Military Sales Acquisitions.
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 applies when a contract includes Foreign Military Sales (FMS) requirements. It requires the contractor to keep FMS and U.S. line items separate in progress payment requests and to show how amounts are distributed among countries. It matters because it dictates how progress payment requests must be prepared and documented for FMS work.
Applies to: Contractors with contracts that include Foreign Military Sales (FMS) requirements
What it requires
- Submit separate progress payment requests for the FMS and U.S. line items in the contract
- Submit a supporting schedule showing the amount of each request distributed to each country's requirements
- Identify in each progress payment request the contract requirements to which it applies (i.e., FMS or U.S.)
- Calculate each request on the basis of the prices, costs (including costs to complete), subcontract financing, and progress payment liquidations of the contract requirements to which it applies
