US Federal Contractor Registration Enrolls Businesses In The Simplified Acquisition Program In 2014

By Max Timko


US Federal Contractor Registration has developed a federal marketing program that has been proven to establish businesses in the federal marketplace and start winning government contracts. The name of the program is called the Simplified Acquisition Program. The Simplified Acquisition Program was designed around government contract rulings set forth in the Federal Acquisition Regulations PART 13.

The Simplified Acquisition Program allows businesses to reach out to purchasing officers to receive information about their accessible simplified acquisition contracts. Reaching out to make a real individual to-individual connection is the best way to develop a great business relationship with federal buyers. This is a paramount component of success in Federal Contracting, in light of the fact that most government organizations will not post contracts that range from $2,500 to $25,000 on FedBizOpps(FBO) or to an alternate government bid board website. Purchasing officers will utilize SMART Pay Cards, blank purchase agreements, and cold hard cash on simplified acquisition contracts.

Procurement officers can use a federally recognized credit card because simplified acquisition contracts require very little to no paperwork to justify the cost of the purchase. All large government contracts that exceed the simplified acquisition threshold must be recorded and documented in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS), which will later be reviewed in the Federal Procurement Data System (FPDS), or at USASpending.gov. Simplified acquisition contracts and low level micro-purchases do not need to be documented or recorded in FAPIIS.

Large contracts above the simplified acquisition threshold must be reported in the Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). Being able to bid on government contracts that are not even released yet gives a business using the Simplified Acquisition Program a much-needed leg up on their competition in the federal marketplace. US Federal Contractor Registration provides business owners with all of the necessary tools to start winning these available simplified acquisition contracts. With the government spending over $400 billion every year, there are countless government contracts that can be won utilizing a US Federal Contractor Registration Simplified Acquisition Program.

The purpose of simplified acquisition program is to reduce amministrative costs; while improving opportunities for small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, women-owned businesses, veteran-owned businesses, HUBZone businesses, and service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns. The program is designed to award a fair proportion of Government contracts to the above businesses based on the Federal mandates along with promoting efficiency and economy in contracting, and avoid unnecessary burdens for agencies /contractors.
