Competitive Sourcing
High Efficiency in Acquisition

The President has identified competitive sourcing as one of his five management objectives to enhance Government effectiveness.

Competitive Sourcing is an examination of commercial activities to determine the most cost-effective and efficient method of acquisition. Commercial activities are defined as those activities resulting in a product or service that could be obtained from the private sector. Attention to competitive sourcing is imperative as the Government acts to address the human capital issues associated with the retirement bulge and to ensure that vital services and products continue to be provided to the public while integrating knowledge capture and management systems into the Government of the future.

To be effective, competitive sourcing practices will require the coordinated efforts of managers throughout the Government. This seminar is geared toward individuals who will be tasked with leading and implementing competitive sourcing activities within their agencies.
