The Department of Transportation (DOT) issued this special notice to announce the immediate implementation of Executive Order 14398, which addresses diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) discrimination by federal contractors. This policy establishes that federal agencies will not conduct business with contractors engaged in racially discriminatory DEI activities. Following model deviation text issued by the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council on April 20, 2026, the DOT issued FAR Class Deviation 2026-24 to update Revolutionary FAR Overhaul class deviations for FAR Parts 9, 12, 22, and 52.
Contracting officers must now include the required Executive Order 14398 clause in all new solicitations and resulting contracts valued above the micro-purchase threshold, including those for commercial products and services performed within the United States. The DOT is concurrently updating its existing contract portfolio to incorporate these requirements, with the goal of bilaterally modifying existing contracts no later than July 24, 2026. This notice was published on May 1, 2026, and includes one attachment detailing the signed supplemental class deviation.
