  2. CAS Threshold: CAS thresholds are increasing to $35 million for modified coverage and full CAS coverage is increasing from $50 million to $100 million, which will eliminate requirements for about 10% of the current CAS contract dollars.
  3. Cost Impacts: Industry gets a big win as related to netting multiple cost impacts occurring in the same year and excluding FFP contracts.
  4. CAS Board: The CAS Board is expanding and by 2028, DCAA is no longer at the table.
