...Exchanges With Industry Before Receipt of Proposals (4-4) Part 15 of the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) “prescribes [the] policies and procedures governing competitive and noncompetitive negotiated acquisitions.” One component of negotiated acquisitions that occurs early in the acquisition process is the solicitation of proposals. FAR 15.201, titled, “Exchanges with Industry before Receipt of Proposals,” regulates the type and manner of communications, also sometimes referred to as exchanges, which can – and cannot – take place between the Government and potential suppliers prior to the receipt of a potential supplier’s proposal and the subsequent award of a contract. This paper will address a few of the various types and formats of exchanges that might occur between the Government and potential suppliers prior to the Government’s receipt of proposals, and the manner in which some of these exchanges are to occur; some of the legal, regulatory, and logistical considerations that a Program Manager, Contracting Officer, or other Government participant in the acquisition process might need to be mindful of when conducting discussions; and the diligence and care that must be utilized by the Government team members when conducting exchanges with potential suppliers before the receipt of proposals in order to avoid issues that may arise later in the procurement process. Exchanges of information can take place either before, after, or both before and after the official...

...be at outside of that organization. For us to move an object, we shall be the fulcrum. After some few rethinking and meditation, we became fully aware that corruption is not just within the AFP. It was all over the system. During that time, there are many if not several, corruption allegations that hounded the Arroyo administration. It was September 2006 when we have decided that we need to change the venue of our “war against corruption”. But for us to accomplish this, we should convince one of our member, Lieutenant Junior Grade Antonio F. Trillanes IV, to run for a Senate seat. It was too high that we ourselves are too scared to think about it. The Project: Continuous dialogue and consultation with the Uniformed Services My proposal is anchored on two approaches, one is to come up with a better legislative work, both in Senate and in the House of Representatives, that will promote the best interest of the uniformed services. And second is to have a better understanding and common ground between...

And the operational costs would include personnel costs, fundraising expenses and other resources that are used to complete the proposal process. The Five-Steps of the Theories of Constraints Step 1: Identify the organizational bottleneck(s). After reviewing the budgeted funding pipeline for the year, we only received 35% of the funding we expected between January and July. We found that there were grant proposals that we were eligible for that we did not compete for and some of our proposals were rejected because they were late, incomplete or did not meet one or more requirement. Due to fundraising consultants limited working hour for our organization and the variations in processing times and due dates, most of the proposals were being submitted only when the consultant was scheduled to be in the office and they did not review the guidelines for eligibility...
