Final Rule – Treatment of IR&D costs

The Department of Defense (“DoD”) issued its final rule on January 31, 2023, made effective on the same date, implementing section 824 of the National Defense Authorization Act (“NDAA”) for fiscal year 2017. Significant to the new rule is the added requirement for CEOs to determine that the Independent Research and Development (“IR&D”) “will advance the needs of DoD for future technology and advanced capability as DoD describes such needs in communications referenced at 242.771-3(c)(1)(i)”. With the CEO now making the determination, requirements for the Administrative Contracting Officer (“ACO”) were removed.
