Posted December 11, 20204 yr comment_56013 Hi all, I am in the process of developing a PWS for an OTA. I understand an OTA allows for a lot of flexibility and not subject to all of the rules that a contracts is subject to. I have an AO saying that because of this flexibility, I do not need CDRLs, DIDs, or a QASP. This is performance based. How are we to monitor the performance without identifying the performance standaand expectations? I have not found any information to support not needing those documents. Help!

DARPA has lots of OTA information including sample contracts. Take a look at use of milestone reports in Article 5B, Payments section. https://acquisitioninnovation.darpa.mil/samples-and-resources/samples

December 11, 20204 yr comment_56020 You are welcome. Article 5B above is actually roman numeral V: B.
