Termination for cause FAR Part 12 termination concepts differ from FAR Part 49 Contracting Officers shall follow the procedures in FAR Part 12 when terminating a commercial contract. The requirements of Part 49 do not apply when terminating contracts for commercial items; however, Contracting Officers may continue to use Part 49 as guidance to the extent that Part 49 does not conflict with FAR Part 12 and the language of the termination paragraphs in FAR 52.212-4
