Typical Acquisition Methodology • Direct Contracting (IAW FAR, DFARS, AFARS, etc.) • Best Value Contracting – LPTA – Low Price Technically Acceptable • Cost Plus • Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) • Design-Build • Design-Bid-Build • A/E Indefinite Delivery Task Order Contract (IDT) • Planning • Design • Environmental • Indefinite Delivery / Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) • Job Order Contracts (JOC) • Sole-Source Local Contractors • Services • Management • Total Maintenance Contract (TMC)
Future Outlook - Acquisition Increased (public) transparency on use of funds/ detailed information for the public via government websites. Intensive (electronic) reporting on all expended funds/Government and Private Sector “recipients” reports. Increased focus on competition in acquisitions/spotlight on non-competitive acquisitions. Even greater preference for firm-fixed price contracts/contract vehicles which minimize schedule, cost and performance risk to government, over cost type contracts. Continued and enhanced efforts to increase small business participation in DoD acquisitions. Potential for increased oversight by Government auditors (AAA, DoD IG, Engineer IG, etc.)
Doing Business With The Corps Contractors must be CCR Registered (www.ccr.gov) Make sure certifications are up to date and in the correct data bases HUBZone, SBD, 8(a), etc. see http://sba.gov/ Make sure bonding is in place (for construction projects) All solicitations are posted to Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) (www.fedbizopps.gov). FBO now has the capability to accept sensitive information.
