FAR Council

The FAR Council, composed of representatives from the Office of Federal Procurement Policy and various federal agencies, oversees the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). The FAR outlines the rules and guidelines that government agencies and contractors must follow when acquiring goods and services. Essentially, the FAR Council ensures that federal procurement processes are fair, efficient, and transparent, promoting competition and accountability in government spending. This helps ensure taxpayers’ money is spent wisely and supports businesses in navigating the complex federal contracting landscape.
