FAR and DFARS › FAR Part 52: Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses › Subpart 52.2

FAR 52.222-24 Preaward On-Site Equal Opportunity Compliance Evaluation.

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 provision says that if a contract of $10 million or more will result from the solicitation, the prospective contractor and its known first-tier subcontractors with anticipated subcontracts of $10 million or more may face a preaward on-site equal opportunity compliance evaluation by the OFCCP. This matters because it can add a compliance review step before award, unless the OFCCP already evaluated them within the preceding 24 months and found them in compliance with Executive Order 11246.

Applies to: Prospective contractors and their known first-tier subcontractors on solicitations that will result in a contract of $10 million or more
