#  [Amended]

**AGENCY:**

Defense Acquisition Regulations System, Department of Defense (DoD).

**ACTION:**

Final rule.

**SUMMARY:**

DoD is making technical amendments to the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to provide needed editorial changes.

**DATES:**

**FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:**

Ms. Jennifer L. Hawes, Defense Acquisition Regulations System, OUSD(AT&L)DPAP(DARS), Room 3B941, 3060 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3060. Telephone 571-372-6115; facsimile 571-372-6094.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

This final rule amends the DFARS as follows—

1. Directs contracting officers to DFARS Procedures, Guidance, and Information (PGI) for information on the Governmentwide moratorium on public-private competitions by adding a cross reference at DFARS 207.302 and 237.102(b);

2. Corrects a typographical error at DFARS 209.505-4(b)(ii);

3. Updates hyperlinks to information on passive radio frequency identification at DFARS 211.275-2(a)(2) and paragraphs (b)(1)(ii) and (d)(2) of DFARS clause 252.211-7006;

4. Corrects a threshold at DFARS 215.408(3)(ii)(A)( *1* )( *i* ) to reflect $700,000 in lieu of $750,000 because that threshold was not subject to the inflation adjustment at DFARS Case 2014-D025 published in the *Federal Register* at 80 FR 36903;

5. Updates DFARS 237.102-75 to reference the “Defense Acquisition Guidebook, Chapter 14, Acquisition of Services” instead of the “Guidebook for the Acquisition of Services;”

6. Updates DFARS 237.102-77 to reference the “Acquisition Requirements Roadmap Tool” instead of the “Automated Requirements Roadmap Tool;”

7. Corrects a cross reference at DFARS 242.7202(a) by changing paragraph (e) to paragraph (d) of the clause at 252.242.7004; and

8. Corrects a cross reference at DFARS 245.102(4)(i) by changing PGI 245.201-71 to PGI 245.103-72.
