DFARS 222.17 and PGI provide what for DoD acquisition policy?

• A. They replace FAR
• B. They provide uniform acquisition policies and procedures for the DoD and should be read in conjunction with FAR
• C. They apply only to civilian agencies
• D. They govern environmental compliance

Answer: (B)

DFARS and PGI establish uniform DoD-specific acquisition policies and procedures that supplement the FAR. They are intended to be read in conjunction with the FAR to implement DoD requirements consistently across components. They do not replace FAR, which remains the baseline for federal acquisitions, and their scope is the Department of Defense, not civilian agencies. Environmental compliance is addressed where relevant, but the main purpose of these documents is to provide DoD-specific acquisition rules and guidance, not to govern environmental policy.
