The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) issued a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Deviation on February 19, 2025, to ensure compliance with recent Executive Orders aimed at ending illegal discrimination, restoring merit-based opportunity, defending women from gender ideology extremism, eliminating harmful prior executive actions, and ending the procurement and forced use of paper straws. This deviation aligns MCC solicitations and contracts with updated regulations and procedures, specifically incorporating revised definitions and processes in FAR Parts 2, 11, 18, 23, and 37. The deviation mandates the removal of certain outdated provisions and clauses related to labor standards, equal opportunity, affirmative action, environmental compliance, and sustainability, among others. In place of the removed provisions, the deviation introduces updated contract clauses and solicitation terms modified to reflect the new executive directives. These include updated annual representations and certifications, contract terms designed to implement relevant statutes and executive orders, simplified acquisition terms and conditions, and clauses addressing construction wage requirements and subcontract compliance. Notably, clauses promoting sustainable products, waste reduction, and biobased product certification are retained but revised to align with the new executive mandates. The contract applies specifically to agreements referencing this deviation, with performance located in Washington, DC, thereby streamlining government procurement practices while ensuring adherence to the current administration's policies and regulatory framework.
