XYZ SBG(G)N
"I passed my CO warrant board! Now for the fun! Vacation tomorrow!" you think.
Just then your boss comes into the office. After you crawl out from under the desk and explain you dropped a paper-clip, your boss hands you a procurement package.
You have in front of you a detailed design specification for the "XYZ Super Bad-Guy(Girl) Neutralizer."
"We need 3000 of these and we need them now! Special Ops has sent us $30 mil to get this done. The soldiers in the field need this weapon! It is vital to the war effort"
"So much for vacation.. ."
How do you proceed? (Hint: go sole source this time!)
1. Plan an acquisition strategy to acquire the XYZ SBG(G)N.
You receive a single proposal from General Statics Corporation for $31 mil. You determine that the proposal is responsive and the contractor is responsible.
2. What do you do now?
3. You reach an impasse with General Statics in your negotiations. What plan of action do you suggest?
