The curious case of the ignored prototype OT regulation

The curious case of the ignored prototype OT regulation

Summary

A DAU OT Community of Practice blog post (updated April 2023), 'The Curious Case of the Ignored Prototype OT Regulation,' discussing 32 CFR Part 3, the decades-old regulation titled 'Transactions Other Than Contracts, Grants Or Cooperative Agreements for Prototype Projects.' It explains that Part 3 was written to implement Section 845 of the FY1994 NDAA, which the FY2016 NDAA repealed (introducing the current 10 U.S.C. 2371b, now 4022), leaving most of Part 3 nullified and unenforceable, with the exception of Section 3.8's DoD access-to-records policy grounded in the Single Audit Act. It notes DPC was, as of spring 2024, updating the OT regulation.
