Decommission of FAADC V1.1 Atom Feeds

FAADC Version 1.2 (deployed on November 16, 2024) allows new Federal Assistance awards to capture up to five (5) Assistance Listings ("ALs"). The overall totals of monetary data elements (previously singular values) are now auto calculated as the sum over all Assistance Listings.

In support of this change, new Assistance Listing-level data elements were added to FAADC, and the associated XML Tags were added to the FAADC V1.2 Atom Feeds.

Systems were given six months to transition to the FAADC V1.2 Atom Feeds. As the new V1.2 data elements will only be displayed on FAADC V1.2 Atom Feeds and beyond, the following FAADC V1.1 Atom Feeds shall be decommissioned:

Beta Decommission Date: 6/20/2025
- V1.1 Assistance Feed
- V1.1 Assistance Deleted Feed

Production Decommission Date: 6/28/2025
- V1.1 Assistance Feed
- V1.1 Assistance Deleted Feed

After 6/28/2025, only Version 1.2 of the Assistance and Assistance Deleted Atom Feeds will be available for use. For additional information regarding FAADC Version 1.2, including the content and associated implementation dates and Government Acceptance Testing dates, the Release Notes can be accessed at the following link: FAADC Version 1.2

FPDS National Interest Action data element disabled as of January 27, 2024

The National Interest Action (NIA) data element has been decommissioned and will not be collected on new Contract Action Reports (CARs) on or after January 27, 2024. The NIA data element will continue to be available for correction of existing CARs.
