DoD EfficienciesPD Joint Products Initiatives
• Implement Best Value competition on most contracts– Replace traditional non‐competitive procurements on some items– Establish realistic manufacturing lead times to enable competition– Incentivize quality and production process improvement through technical factors
• Structure contracts for 3‐5 years, with ranged option quantities– Achieve economy in both Government and Industry– Plan and prepare new contracts earlier, with more overlap with prior contracts– Reduce Procurement Lead Times in option years
• Establish firm fixed prices; replace some cost‐type contracts– Incentivize efficiency and productivity
• Award dual contracts where funded volume allows– Alleviate Single Point Failures
• Restrict most contracts to NTIB IAW Section 806
• Work with Service engineers and SMCA contractors to implement needed Tech Data Package updates/improvements– Pay for engineering changes and take ownership in Government TDPs
