C Culham Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 1 hour ago, Oversight said: Hello everyone Many of the thoughts expressed about scope etc. may play at your agency. My quick thought on your response is AMS rings a bell as FAA. If so and if your CFO is also getting guidance from the AGC 500 office then the approach is doable. The only concern I would have is how you might otherwise define scope as I suspect that matters of scope would apply. Maybe so, maybe not but the thought should be raised.

Retreadfed Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 1 hour ago, Oversight said: I would like us to consider allowing the COs to award new contracts after the current ones end with open ended contract values (no ceilings) If you are using appropriated funds, how does this square with the Anti-Deficiency Act?

ji20874 Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Oversight, I guess an important question is whether your prospective contractors can accept a contract with no upper limitation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oversight Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 That is a good point about contract scope. For BPAs, it would be easier. I agree. That is a conversation we need to have internally, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oversight Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Thank you for your question. The bonafide needs rule would apply to each delivery order. The CO would need to verify compliance with all appropriations laws before ordering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oversight Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 To ji20874. I do not think any of us have thought of that. Thank you. Again, because they want to issue contracts this can be little trickier than if they were BPAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
