The Department of State’s Senior Procurement Executive has issued guidance to contractors and federal assistance recipients regarding the lapse in appropriations that began on October 1, 2025. Due to the lack of a fiscal year 2026 appropriation, the Antideficiency Act restricts the Department and USAID from incurring new financial obligations beyond certain exceptions. This impacts the capacity to purchase supplies, issue grants, and provide oversight, potentially leading to the cancellation, postponement, suspension, or termination of certain contracts and grants, as well as possible payment delays. If a contract or grant is directly affected by the funding lapse, contractors and recipients will be notified by their contracting or grant officer. If there is no notification, contractors must continue to fulfill all contract or grant requirements as specified. The Department will not issue notifications for contracts or grants that remain unaffected at the onset. When a Continuing Resolution or full-year appropriation is enacted, the Department will coordinate a return to normal operations and update impacted parties accordingly. The message concludes with appreciation for partners’ cooperation during this period of fiscal uncertainty.
