                Establishing Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 40 (FAR Case 2022-010)
                 This final rule amends the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to
                add the framework for a new FAR part on information security and supply
                chain security. The new FAR part will be used to prescribe policies and
                procedures for managing information security and supply chain security
                when acquiring products and services. The creation of this new FAR part
                does not implement any of the information security and supply chain
                security policies or procedures. Relocation of the related existing
                policies or procedures will be done through separate rulemaking.
