The FAR Council is committed to engaging with industry partners and the public with regards to FAR Council policies and issues relevant to current and future Federal Acquisition Regulation cases, including suggestions and concerns with new and existing policies. In addition, the FAR Council is interested in hearing views on topics such as: (1) new laws or draft legislation on which it should focus; (2) how it can improve the acquisition process; and (3) how to better integrate commercial practices into Federal acquisition. To that end, the FAR Council is hosting a hybrid in-person and virtual listening session on December 4, 2024.

Industry partners and the public wishing to attend in-person or virtually must register. Registrants who would like to attend in-person must do so no later than November 15, 2024. Registrants who would like to address the FAR Council must register in advance and no later than November 8, 2024. The FAR Council would like to hear the views of as many voices as practicable and will select questions/comments keeping in mind the number received, the limited time available and the order received.
