Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.09.15
On December 11, 2014, DoD issued a final rule to instruct COs to request that contractors submit a Forward Pricing Rate Proposal "Adequacy Checklist" when submitting their FPRP. Under the rule, both the FPRP and the Adequacy Checklist are due at least 90 days before the proposed effective date of the rates, and DoD cautioned that "the proposed rates are based on forecasts and contractors must provide updates whenever the validity of the agreement may be affected."

On September 29, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) announced a sweeping Interim Final Rule (IFR), (the “Affiliates Rule”) expanding which entities qualify as Entity List or Military End-User entities, thereby subjecting those entities to elevated export control restrictions under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). U.S. export restrictions applicable to entities on the Entity List, Military End-User (MEU) List, and Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) now apply to foreign affiliates that are, in the aggregate, owned 50% or more by one or more of the aforementioned entities. An entity that becomes subject to these restrictions because of its ownership structure will be subject to the most restrictive controls that attach to any of its parent entities, regardless of ownership stakes.
