Evil Prime's Analysis of FAR 2.0

Oh. My. God. 😈

This isn’t just an update—it’s a full-blown power shift at the highest levels of the federal procurement ecosystem. If OMB is truly rewriting the FAR (without the usual gatekeepers like GSA and the acquisition councils), this is essentially a regulatory coup. And it’s not just any coup—it’s a streamlined, fast-track demolition of the very bureaucratic barriers that have kept Evil Prime from achieving total market dominance.

Let’s dissect the implications, because this is big:

🚀 "Line out all text that is not required by statute…"

Translation:👉 Strip out all the bureaucratic padding, compliance fluff, and legacy oversight mechanisms that have been slowing down awards and driving up compliance costs.👉 Goodbye competition requirements, small business set-asides, and socioeconomic goals.👉 What remains? A core statutory framework that will make it exponentially easier for experienced contractors (read: Evil Prime) to dominate awards.

This is the regulatory equivalent of setting fire to the rulebook and letting the strongest predator feast on the wreckage. Evil Prime’s ability to navigate the FAR’s convoluted labyrinth has always been a competitive advantage—but if OMB reduces the FAR to a barebones statutory skeleton, that advantage becomes insurmountable.

💣 "Line out text based on executive orders…"

Music to Evil Prime’s ears.

Executive orders are where most of the "annoying" stuff lives—things like:✔️ Sustainability requirements✔️ Labor protections✔️ Contractor ethics rules✔️ Socioeconomic requirements (small business, minority-owned business, HUBZone, etc.)

Removing EO-based language means:✅ No more pointless environmental assessments.✅ No more small business quotas or set-aside preferences.✅ No more labor reporting requirements.✅ No more "ethical sourcing" nonsense.

This eliminates many of the guardrails designed to keep contractors "in check." Without these executive order-based restrictions, the path to sole-source dominance becomes wide open.

🥷 "They are doing research into the sources of existing text."

Translation:👉 They’re figuring out how much of the FAR is legally required versus bureaucratically imposed.👉 Anything that’s not grounded in statute is on the chopping block.

This is surgical deregulation. Evil Prime thrives in a chaotic contracting environment where ambiguous or redundant rules can be weaponized. If OMB reduces the FAR to a tightly focused statutory core, the remaining rules will be simpler to navigate and easier to exploit through loopholes.

🏎️ "They are planning to move fast and complete the project in weeks, not months."

This is the clearest indicator that this is a power play. Bypassing the normal notice and comment process means:

👉 No stakeholder feedback.👉 No public pushback.👉 No interference from small businesses, watchdogs, or oversight agencies.

This is a deliberate blitzkrieg designed to neutralize the influence of GSA, the acquisition councils, and politically motivated bureaucrats who would normally try to slow down or complicate the process. Evil Prime can only assume that this is being driven from the highest levels—because no mid-tier office would have the political muscle to ram this through so aggressively.

🧠 "Masters and solid journeymen will thrive."

Oh, this is the best part. If the FAR is reduced to a stripped-down, statutorily pure framework, the contractors that thrive will be the ones with deep institutional knowledge and sophisticated legal teams.

Who wins in that environment?👉 Not small businesses—they survive on preferential treatment and set-asides.👉 Not government agencies—they’re going to lose the bureaucratic handrails that help them navigate contracting.👉 Not mid-tier players—they don’t have the scale or legal talent to survive in a lean, competitive landscape.👉 Prime contractors with legal muscle, lobbying influence, and decades of FAR mastery.

Evil Prime has spent years investing in precisely this kind of expertise. Reducing the FAR to its statutory core will make it easier to game the system because there will be fewer compliance barriers to manipulate. Evil Prime’s in-house legal predators are already licking their chops.

😈 What This Means for Evil Prime’s Strategy:

1. Double down on IDIQs and CSOs – With the FAR gutted, these contracting vehicles will become even more dominant because they’ll offer the fastest path to award.

2. Accelerate lobbyist activity – If OMB is moving this aggressively, there are political forces at play. Time to line up more congressional "friends" to ensure Evil Prime gets preferential positioning under the new framework.

3. Prepare for a Small Business Massacre – Without executive order-based protections, small businesses are about to be slaughtered. Evil Prime should gear up to absorb their market share and offer "partnership opportunities" to cherry-pick any valuable IP or talent left in the wreckage.

4. Exploit the Confusion – Government acquisition personnel are going to flounder once the regulatory scaffolding is ripped away. Evil Prime should position itself as the "trusted expert" to guide agencies through the transition—while crafting contracts that maximize dependency.

5. Monopolize Software Acquisition – With the DoD already shifting to CSOs and OTs, and the FAR getting streamlined, this is the perfect storm to lock in multi-year sustainment contracts for mission-critical systems.

🏆 The Endgame?

This isn’t just good news—it’s a strategic windfall. Evil Prime thrives in environments where complexity, chaos, and power vacuums exist. This FAR overhaul is about to create exactly that:✅ Simpler acquisition pathways = faster awards.✅ Fewer competitors = increased market share.✅ Lower compliance burdens = higher profit margins.✅ Reduced small business protections = fewer barriers to dominance.✅ Less oversight = broader scope for manipulation and influence.

The GSA memo and the DoD memo were the warning shots.The FAR rewrite is the kill shot.

Once the dust settles, Evil Prime won’t just dominate federal contracting—it will own the playing field itself. 😎
