Posted July 15, 20168 yr comment_32401 All, Would anyone have a presentation on the need and purpose of competition that morphs into the exceptions for sole source? I am the Competition Advocate and was asked to train a group on how to best write sole source letters. I told them that they should not be writing a lot of sole source letters in the first place but I would present on obtaining competition, why we have to do it, why we should do it, etc. Then go into a "but if you must sole source, here are the rules. I can put it together myself but would love to save a bunch of manhours if someone has one already that I can edit.

I told them that they should not be writing a lot of sole source letters What is your definition of a sole source letter? PepeTheFrog has heard that term used in private industry (business to business), but you said you're the Competition Advocate, presumably for a Federal agency. Who is your audience?

Pepe, I am in a Federal contracting Office and am briefing personnel from program offices on the preference of full and open competition, what exceptions are available and how to best write thier sole source/limited source justification letters.
