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 the contracting officer when to include the clause at 52.251-2, Interagency Fleet Management System (IFMS) Vehicles and Related Services, in a solicitation or contract. It applies when a cost-reimbursement contract is planned and the contracting officer may allow the contractor to use IFMS vehicles and related services. For contractors, this means the clause may appear in such contracts and will govern the possible use of those vehicles and services.
Applies to: Solicitations and contracts where a cost-reimbursement contract is contemplated and the contracting officer may authorize use of IFMS vehicles and related services
