Waiver from Federal Information Resource Regs

Eliminate requirements and alternatives analyses for commodity IT
acquisitions.

By December 1994, the Administrator, GSA, should, on an interim basis,
authorize a waiver from the Federal Information Resources Management
Regulation provisions on requirements and alternatives analyses for
individual competitive acquisitions of commodity IT resources valued
under $500,000 for products and $2.5 million for services over the life
of the contract. This change recognizes that risk and complexity are
greatly reduced in these smaller IT acquisitions and this additional
paperwork and compliance with current regulations is unnecessary.
