bob7947 Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 H. R. 4995: Due Diligence for FEMA Disaster Contractors Act of 2018, was proposed on February 9, 2018. This is the type of legislation that is proposed when, according to news articles, someone awards a $150 million contract to an LLC with no employees, and who has a record of performance problems. See the sponsor's Press Release. Do you believe H. R. 4995 is necessary or do you believe the FAR coverage is adequate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Culham Posted February 18, 2018 Report Share Posted February 18, 2018 FAR coverage is adequate.....adding one more Act to require contracting entities to make responsibility determinations or otherwise determine if a contractor can deliver is a waste of pen and ink. PS - I wonder if the Press Release is click bait as the letter it references and links to is about immigration! Lordy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vern Edwards Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 FAR coverage is adequate. This is the kind of proposed legislation you get when an opposition party politician is "shocked, shocked" to learn that something inappropriate has happened under whatever administration is currently in place.

here_2_help Posted February 19, 2018 Report Share Posted February 19, 2018 FAR coverage is adequate if enforced, and discipline for intentional violation is consistently meted out. Otherwise, no. We need to revise Title 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
