As we noted last week, the FAR Council released proposed rules remaking 19 separate FAR parts. Included in the first tranche of proposed rules under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul (RFO), the Federal Acquisition Regulatory (FAR) Council has released a significantly revised proposed rule governing the protection of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) by civilian contractors. Published on June 23, 2026, at 91 FR 37550, this version updates and supersedes the standalone proposed rule that the FAR Council issued in January 2025 (90 FR 4278, FAR Case 2017-016). The comment deadline for the new proposed rule is July 23, 2026.
The Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council (FAR Council) issued proposed updates to large portions of the Federal Acquisition Regulation as part of its comprehensive, self-titled “Revolutionary” FAR Overhaul Initiative.
