GSA Class Deviation Takes Aim at Commercial Terms
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 08.26.15
As reported by the Coalition of Government Procurement, GSA recently released a final version of the class deviation it previewed in March that purports to eliminate commercial terms that are inconsistent with federal law. Among other changes, the deviation (1) revises the order of precedence to give solicitation provisions precedence over commercial provisions; (2) rewrites commercial supplier agreement dispute resolution, automatic renewal, and audit right provisions; and (3) places limits on the use and applicability of click-wrap and other comparable commercial contract execution mechanisms.

DOJ Establishes National Fraud Enforcement Division
On April 7, 2026, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche issued a memorandum establishing the National Fraud Enforcement Division (NFED) within the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). This new division will be dedicated to the centralized, coordinated investigation and prosecution of fraud against taxpayer dollars and taxpayer-funded programs. AAG Blanche acknowledged that, while DOJ has a “storied history of combatting fraud,” DOJ has “never adopted a comprehensive and coordinated approach to investigating and prosecuting fraud against taxpayer dollars and tax-payer funded programs.” The NFED was created to close that gap with its core mission being to “zealously investigate and prosecute those who steal or fraudulently misuse taxpayer dollars.”
