Anatomy of a Decision: DFARS Case 2015-D035

On April 30, 2019, a long-time exception to the use of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.245-1 was removed. Now, “acquisition value alone…is not an indicator of the criticality or sensitivity of the property.”

In other words, it is no longer an option to use FAR 45.107(d), allowing items below the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT) to be exempt from FAR 52.245-1.

Small government contractors must now comply with property management regulations usually reserved for the largest contractors. Large contractors use high-end enterprise asset management (EAM) systems that small contractors cannot typically afford

Miniaturized enterprise asset management (mEAM)
