------------------------------------------------------------------------
                          Subject                              FAR case
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inflation Adjustment of Acquisition--Related Thresholds....    2024-001
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A summary for the FAR rule follows. For the 
actual revisions and/or amendments made by this FAR rule, refer to the 
specific subject set forth in the document following this summary. FAC 
2025-06 amends the FAR as follows:

Inflation Adjustment of Acquisition-Related Thresholds (FAR Case 2024-
001)

    This final rule amends the FAR to further implement 41 U.S.C. 1908. 
Section 1908 requires an adjustment, for inflation, every 5 years (in 
years evenly divisible by 5) of statutory acquisition-related 
thresholds using the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers, 
except for the Construction Wage Rate Requirements statute (Davis-Bacon 
Act), Service Contract Labor Standards statute, performance and payment 
bonds (formerly the Miller Act), and trade agreements thresholds (see 
FAR 1.109). OFPP, DoD, GSA, and NASA are also using the same 
methodology to change nonstatutory FAR acquisition-related thresholds 
for 2025. The final rule is not expected to have a significant impact 
on the public or the Government because the rule is intended to 
maintain the status quo by adjusting acquisition-related thresholds for 
inflation.
