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

FAR 52.252-1 Solicitation Provisions Incorporated by Reference.

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 the solicitation includes certain provisions by reference, meaning they apply just as fully as if written out in the solicitation. The Contracting Officer will provide the full text on request, and offerors must watch for provisions with blocks they need to complete and submit with their offer.

What it requires

  • Complete any blocks in the listed provisions and submit them with the quotation or offer
