Rule Listed in FAC 2021-01 Subject FAR case * Inflation Adjustment of Acquisition-Related Thresholds 2019-013 ADDRESSES: The FAC, including the SECG, is available via the internet at *https://www.regulations.gov.* SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A summary for the FAR rule follows. For the actual revisions and/or amendments made by this FAR case, refer to the specific subject set forth in the document following this summary. FAC 2021-01 amends the FAR as follows: Inflation Adjustment of Acquisition-Related Thresholds (FAR Case 2019-013) This final rule amends the Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR)to further implement 41 U.S.C. 1908. Section 1908 requires an adjustment every 5 years (in years evenly divisible by 5) of statutory acquisition-related thresholds for inflation 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, and trade agreements thresholds (see FAR 1.109). DoD, GSA, and NASA are also using the same methodology to change nonstatutory FAR acquisition-related thresholds for adjustment in 2020. This final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. William F. Clark, Director, Office of Government-wide Acquisition Policy, Office of Acquisition Policy, Office of Government-wide Policy. [FR Doc. 2020-21691 Filed 10-1-20; 8:45 am]
