Federal Acquisition Regulation; Electronic Commerce in Federal Procurement

概要

The Civilian Agency Acquisition Council and the Defense Acquisition Regulations Council (Councils) are proposing to amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to designate FedBizOpps as the single point of universal electronic public access to Governmentwide procurement opportunities. Agencies will have until October 1, 2001, to complete their transition to, or integration with, FedBizOpps. This rule implements section 850 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998. The proposed rule also changes the public notification requirements to allow greater electronic access to information on Government acquisitions, including notices of upcoming acquisition opportunities, notices of subcontracting opportunities, and notices of contract awards.
