Imagine that you are working on a project to purchase 5,000 electrical generators with an electrical capacity of three (3) kilowatts and will be used by the U.S. Army for battlefield communications systems. Choose to respond to this scenario from a contractor perspective. Complete the assignment as if you are a contractor employee submitting a proposal to the government.
Write an eight to ten (8-10) page paper in which you: Evaluate the requirements for announcing federal contract awards. Determine how these requirements apply to this scenario.
(Dr. Vic's Tips: here please re-visit information from Week 8 and include information on requirements to winning bidders and non-winning bidders / vendors. Also, since this is a defense contract - include information on the potential for notifying members of congress as well.
Establish the responsibilities of the Contracting Officers Representative (COR) for this contract. Please address this question from the perspective of what the bidder will see the COR duties as being.
Evaluate the existing training and certification requirements for CORs in general.
Create a set of specific requirements for the COR working on the contract for 5,000 electrical generators.
Please make sure you list at least five specific requirements and discuss each of them briefly:
1) why is the requirement important (what is the purpose of the requirement) and
2) what is the expectation of the offeror or vendor/bidder [depending on whom you selected].
