Competitive Sourcing: Implementation Will Be Key to Success of New Circular A-76
Overview In May 2003, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued a new Circular A-76 - which sets forth the government's competitive sourcing process. Determining whether to obtain services in-house or through commercial contracts is an important economic and strategic decision for agencies, and the use of A-76 is expected to grow throughout the federal government. This paper focuses on how the new Circular addresses the Panel's recommendations with regard to providing a better foundation for competitive sourcing decisions, and the challenges agencies may face in implementing the new A-76.
