DOD, GSA, and NASA Propose Amendment to Federal Acquisition Regulation for Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source Selection Process

The Department of Defense (DoD), General Services Administration (GSA), and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are proposing to update the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to align with the John S. McCain National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2019, which outlines the requirements for using lowest price technically acceptable (LPTA) source selection criteria in solicitations, while also limiting its use in procurements for certain services and supplies to the maximum extent possible.
