A modified FAR numbering system must be followed when the DFARS provides?

A modified FAR numbering system must be followed when the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) provides specific guidance or requirements that differ from the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). This adaptation ensures consistency and clarity in the acquisition process within the Department of Defense (DoD). The DFARS modifications often reflect unique policies, procedures, or statutory requirements relevant to defense acquisitions. Consequently, users must reference the DFARS for applicable deviations or additional information related to contract management and compliance.
