FAR Council Drops Plan to Overhaul Contract Protest Rules
Published Date: 6/12/2025
Proposed Rule
Summary
The FAR Council (including OFPP, DoD, GSA, and NASA) decided to cancel a planned rule about protests on orders under some multiple-award contracts. This means no new protest rules will be added right now, keeping things as they are for contractors and agencies. So, if you’re involved in these contracts, no changes or extra costs are coming your way—at least for now!
