摘要

The study focuses on the impact of the Office of Management and Budget Circular A-76 and the new concept of operating the Naval shore establishment through private sector contracts. The restrictive and binding implementation procedures for contracting Commercial or Industrial Goods and Services is addressed; the Army, Navy and Air Force experiences in converting to multiple function contracting is reviewed; the various contract methodology and pitfalls are analyzed; and Post Award Considerations, both quantitative and nonquantitative are included. The findings of the study forecast the likely contracting environment of the future and explore the factors which should be considered in conversion to contract operations. (Author)
