The RFO release within the DoW (DoD) is a mess.
The DFARS deviated the RFO on a rolling basis. When releasing an RFP, PCOs have to find the FAR parts that are deviated and update those clauses on the FAR and DFARS. The FAR parts that are not deviated, clauses from the old FAR are used.
As of 17 Feb, the old FAR parts 2, 8, 15, 16, 42, 45, and 53 are still used. The other parts use the RFO and the deviated DFARS.
Releasing an RFP right now is an adventure in the DoW. Using the RFO for some parts and old FAR for other parts is an absolute mess. Should have gone to RFO and new DFARS all at once.
DPCAP and the policy makers do not have to deal with the consequences of their decisions. It is always execution that has manage and be responsible for policy decisions.
