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
252.244-7000 is absent from every DoD RFO deviation attachment; the DFARS Part 244 deviation prescribes 252.244-7999 with the identical title "Subcontracts for Commercial Products or Commercial Services". 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.

- codified: Subcontracts for Commercial Products or Commercial Services
- under the deviation: Subcontracts for Commercial Products or Commercial Services
- prescribed at 244.403 (codified); 244.070(b) (deviation text)
