What the source says changed
No official source in the set states what changed in the text; the number and title are as listed.
Why this disposition
252.219-7003 is absent from every DoD RFO deviation attachment; the DFARS Part 219 deviation prescribes 252.219-7996 with the identical title "Small Business Subcontracting Plan (DoD Contracts)". No official table states the mapping, so it rests on title identity.
Confidence: medium. Read from official text by an identical title; no official table states this mapping.
Titles and where each is prescribed
- codified: Small Business Subcontracting Plan (DoD Contracts)
- under the deviation: Small Business Subcontracting Plan (DoD Contracts)
- prescribed at 219.708(b)(1)(A) and (b)(1)(A)( 1 ) (codified); 219.109-70(a) (deviation text)
