FAR 37.113-2 Solicitation provision and contract clause.
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

It matters to contractors because it determines whether a solicitation will contain the restriction on severance payments or a waiver of that restriction.
Applies to: Contracting officers preparing solicitations and contracts
What it requires
- Use the provision at 52.237-8 in all solicitations that meet the criteria in 37.113-1(a), except those excluded by 37.113-1(c).
- When the head of an agency has granted a waiver under 37.113-1, use the clause at 52.237-9.
