Benchmark: Proposed Revisions to HHS Acquisition Regulation (HHSAR)

Take this benchmark to assess how much you would benefit from taking the course on HHS Acquisition Regulation: Regulatory Review. In a few minutes, you’ll see whether you grasp the intent behind the proposed HHSAR revisions, the operational ripple effects on teams and vendors, and the trade-offs between speed, compliance, equity, and stewardship.

What you’ll get from this benchmark:
– A quick read on your readiness to navigate streamlined HHSAR content, the separation of internal procedures into the HHS Acquisition Manual (HHSAM), and closer alignment with the FAR.
– Insight into where the proposed updates could change your workflows: deviation approvals, emergency flexibilities, domestic sourcing under the Make PPE in America Act, utility services, contract administration and changes, property oversight, transportation, and provisions/clauses selection.
– A sense of how public participation (PRA/RFA, regulatory impact) can shape your compliance burden and implementation timeline.

If these questions feel like guesswork, the course will help you connect policy intent to day-to-day decisions, reduce rework and protest risk, and prepare effective comments before the rule is finalized.

NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all Benchmarks are free of charge!
