DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

48 CFR Part 203

[DFARS Case 99-D028]

 
Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement; 
Anticompetitive Teaming

AGENCY: Department of Defense (DoD).

ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: DoD is withdrawing the proposed rule published at 66 FR 55157 
on November 1, 2001. The rule proposed amendments to the Defense 
Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to add policy 
addressing exclusive teaming arrangements. The proposed amendments 
specified that certain exclusive teaming arrangements may evidence 
violations of the antitrust laws. Public comments received on this 
proposed rule and on an earlier proposed rule published at 64 FR 63002 
on November 18, 1999, indicated that there is no demonstrated need for 
DFARS guidance on this subject. Therefore, DoD is withdrawing the 
proposed rule.
