Mythbusters Initiative

ACT-IAC is continuing our work on Mythbusters by helping to identify the top ten industry-friendly contract strategies.

We have identified a number of specific strategies, and we are collecting more to offer a broad-based industry view of the top ten ideas. Please add your votes and your insights, as well as new initiatives to the discussion. ACT-IAC will provide these results to OFPP for their consideration.

Release the IGE or establish a project magnitude for all actions.

This is ONLY a good idea if the Government expects competition. If the Gov only has "y" funding for project "x", why not be honest with the contractors and let them know that information. I have not seen a logical argument against this policy expect from the creators of IGE's that do not want their pride hurt!

        The IGE can help Industry understand the project scope. Could be used more.
