A review of several legal challenges nation- wide is conducted to determine if precedence for the use of PLAs has been established at the state and local levels. An analysis of claims by organized labor that union contractors are more capable, provide better quality, safer and cheaper construction than non-union contractors is conducted. Finally, a survey conducted on merit shop contractors...

This investigation will address the possibility that partnering concepts are underutilized in small government projects. If Government Contracting Officers utilized partnering concepts on small construction projects, there could be a potential for saving millions of dollars annually. The primary objective of this report is to inform Contracting Officers of the benefits of partnering on small construction projects. Small projects will be considered to have a value of less than $3 million,...

With the passage of the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) of 1994, the U.S. Federal Government set in motion a process which is intended to reform the federal acquisition process with the aim of achieving greater efficiency and value. Although numerous initiatives have been adopted in pursuit of this goal, one area which has been neglected is performance bonds. In keeping with the Total Quality Management (TQM) objective of reaping benefits from the 'low hanging fruit' first, this...

The public procurement procedure of Pakistan pertaining to bid evaluation is not defined in detail and has been wholly and solely left at the discretion of the procuring agency. The loophole in the bid evaluation of the public procurement has led to many problems and fraudulent activities. This research...

The thesis objective is to develop a model to forecast the cost and the lead time in awarding a contract. All available, pertinent contract data was obtained and utilized from the Procurement Department of Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division, China Lake, California. The data was limited to the years 1989 through 1991. The actual cost of letting a contract has not been recorded, so a prediction model was fit only for the Procurement Administrative Lead Time (PALT). Cost is believed to be...

This research was undertaken to evaluate the effectiveness of the Navy Office of Legislative Affairs procurement workshops in strengthening the defense industrial base and increasing competition. The researcher found, through a literature review, that there is a need for the procurement workshops. The defense industrial base has shrunk over the last few decades to where there is concern over whether or not the U.S. would be able to fight a prolonged war. Additionally, competition has become the...

The concept of contracting as a science has been explored in depth in procurement research over the past several years. One of the most intriguing research efforts involved the development of a model for the classification of goods. This thesis describes the application and validation of the previously developed scheme for classifying goods procured by the Federal Government. Three distinct homogeneous groups of goods (food service equipment, ship and marine equipment, and items unique to the...

Factors considered included: organization structure, requisition input, requisition throughput and a detailed analysis of the purchasing process itself. A model was developed involving organizational shifts of responsibility and changes...
