Excerpt
Foreword: Performance-based service acquisition (PBSA) has been articulated in regulation, guidance, and policy for over two decades. During that time, agencies have made moderate progress in implementing PBSA, also known as performance-based service contracting and performance-based contracting, but have experienced difficulties in applying PBSA effectively. In April 2002, the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) convened an interagency working group to establish a broader understanding of the requirements of PBSA, and to identify ways to increase agency use of PBSA. The attached report includes recommendations for changes to current regulations and guidance that will give agencies more flexibility in applying PBSA effectively, appropriately, and consistently.
