FAR 4.2306 Solicitation provision and contract clauses.

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 which solicitation provisions and contract clauses they must include when Federal Acquisition Supply Chain Security Act (FASCSA) orders apply. It matters to contractors because it determines which FASCSA-related terms will appear in the solicitations and contracts they respond to or receive.

Applies to: Contracting officers issuing solicitations and contracts where FASCSA orders apply

What it requires

  • Insert the clause at 52.204-28 in the basic contract solicitation and resultant contract for Federal Supply Schedules, Governmentwide acquisition contracts, and multi-agency contracts where FASCSA orders are applied at the order level.
  • Insert the provision at 52.204-29 in all solicitations, except for Federal Supply Schedules, Governmentwide acquisition contracts, and multi-agency contracts.
  • Insert the provision at 52.204-29 in solicitations for Federal Supply Schedules, Governmentwide acquisition contracts, and multi-agency contracts if FASCSA orders are applied at the contract level.
  • Insert the clause at 52.204-30 in solicitations and contracts if the conditions at 4.2304(a)(1) apply, except for Federal Supply Schedules, Governmentwide acquisition contracts, and multi-agency contracts; use Alternate I if conditions at 4.2304(a)(2) apply.
