creyes814 Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Can you use combined a synopsis/solicitation for a new services IDIQ type contract? I see guidance in the FAR under part 12 and 13 for commercial items. Nothing in FAR part 15. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ji20874 Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 See FAR 12.601. You will see there that the streamlined solicitation for commercial items (sometimes called the combined solicitation/synopsis) is for procurements of commercial items. If your new services IDIQ type contract is for commercial items, you're okay. Whether or not it makes sense in your case is something that I leave in your hands.

Sam101 Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 (edited) The combined synopsis/solicitation is a FAR Part 12 thing, it's mentioned in FAR 13 but it's really a FAR 12 thing, you can do a combined synopsis/solicitation no matter what the IGCE is as long as it's for commercial items, you can do a combined synopsis/solicitation even for a $100 million contract for commercial services, and an IDIQ is just a type of contract. If the contract IGCE is $100 million and commercial you would use FAR 12 in conjunction with FAR 15 (unless of course you're using GSA) and FAR 12 lets you use the combined synopsis/solicitation method.
