Government Contracting Officer Podcast
Business:Management
If you work in the Government acquisition world, this podcast is for you. (not just for Contracting Officers!)
Kevin and Paul return to the topic of source selections and discuss one side of the “best value continuum”. Low Price, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) is a source selection process that is appropriate when best value is expected to result from selection of the technically acceptable proposal with the lowest evaluated price.
Learn how the efficiency of the LPTA process can benefit both Government and Industry (when used appropriately) and the limitations that come with this type of source selection.
