The Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council (FAR Council), through the GSA, has updated the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO) model deviation text to reflect changes introduced by the final rule on Trade Agreements Thresholds (FAR Case 2025-007). This update specifically modifies RFO Parts 1, 5, 10, 22, 25, and 52 to conform with the new codified Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) thresholds, which became effective on March 13, 2026.

This update is primarily informational for government agencies and contractors involved in federal procurement. While the RFO is a model deviation, agencies should ensure their internal deviations and acquisition processes align with the updated FAR thresholds. No specific compliance deadline is provided beyond the effective date of the underlying FAR rule, and no penalties are mentioned for this specific update to the model deviation text.
