[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is far too complex of a regulation. A LOT of vendors abuse it by launching protests that are frivolous. [b]Plus there are all these incredibly stupid and arcane rules for source selection and publicizing requirements.[/b] What would take a private company a week to buy 500 laptops could take an agency up to 3 months. The FAR should be no more than 30 pages in length plus NO agency supplements should be allowed. Streamline it asap!!!![/quote] Publicizing requirements and having rules about how to select the source sounds crazy! Why would they want to do that? That would totally get in the way of just funneling money to their preferred vendors. [/quote] There are plenty of ways currently to get contracts without competing for them. 8(a) set asides up to 100m with no questions asked. SBIR contracts are another popular way to have zero competition at all. Hopefully trump fixes some of these scams.[/quote] he will fix it by making it easier for his kids and Elon Musk to get those 100 mn contracts, no questions asked. That's the MAGA way. [/quote]
