FAR 49.111 Review of proposed settlements.

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 requires each agency to set up procedures for administratively reviewing proposed termination settlements when needed. If one agency handles termination settlement services for another, the servicing agency must also perform the settlement review. It matters to contractors because it establishes a review step before a termination settlement is finalized.
