Objectives

Lesson Plan: It is important to understand *why* we conduct training early in the acquisition planning process. The acquisition team must see and understand how their actions (market research/intelligence gathering, analyzing risks, and documenting requirements) impact the acquisition process and eventual source selection.

Through early training, we will identify an optimum and supportable acquisition plan/strategy with key evaluation criteria and optimum contract types for a best value source selection process.

Emphasize a sound foundation for building the Source Selection Plan and execute it by bringing the evaluation criteria into the RFP. Ultimately, the RFP must clearly and concisely communicate the Government requirements.

The training does not capture every activity in the acquisition planning process, but at a minimum it must cover the basics. By the end of the training the team members must be able to develop a sound RFP.

Emphasize that ethics and procurement integrity are an integral part of every acquisition and the related source selection.
