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

FAR 52.232-37 Multiple Payment Arrangements.

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 clause states that the contract allows payments to the contractor through multiple alternative methods. The specific payment methods and the payment office(s) are identified either elsewhere in the contract or in individual orders placed under it. It matters because it tells contractors where to look to find out how and where they will be paid.

Applies to: Contracts or agreements that provide for multiple alternative payment methods
