Section 5490.701: Purpose.

The case format serves two important functions. First, the prescribed structure for presenting the proposed case provides a very useful and clear exposition of the issues to assist the DAR Council in considering cases in a timely and efficient manner. By clearly setting out how the current regulations are perceived to be inadequate and the specific changes that will remedy the described situation, the case structure minimizes misunderstandings and helps avoid the delay that necessarily results when additional information or clarification is required from the party initiating a case. Second, the mandatory minimal information is necessary to comply with various Federal statutes, Executive Orders, or higher level regulations that require those who propose rules, either initially or by way of revision to existing regulations, to analyze and attempt to mitigate the burdens which the proposed rules may place on the public in general, and small businesses in particular. The case format appropriately places initial responsibility for identifying and considering those burdens on the party proposing that the FAR or DFARS be amended. For these reasons, cases that do not follow the prescribed format will be returned with appropriate guidance to the initiator.
