OMB to Facilitate Procurement Reform
Implement the procurement reform plan.
Upon completion and approval of the plan, the Director, Office of
Management and Budget (OMB), should facilitate implementation of the
recommendations. This should include issuing policy letters and tasking
the FARC and other affected parties with revising appropriate documents.
Agency procurement executives should also implement recommendations and
take appropriate action to reduce internal regulations that supplement
the FAR.
Although full implementation may require statutory changes, nonstatutory
solutions should be aggressively pursued.
The OMB Director should report periodically to the President's
Management Council on the status of implementing the recommendations.
