Legislation Details
115th Congress
A bill to provide for the appropriate use of bridge contracts in Federal procurement, and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Sen. Claire McCaskill — D — MO
S. 2413 would require federal agencies to report annually to the Congress on their use of bridge contracts to acquire goods and services. Bridge contracts are generally considered noncompetitive extensions between the end contract of a contract and the competitive award of a follow-on agreement. Specifically, the bill would direct the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) to report on governmentwide policies, and practices for the use of bridge contracts. In addition, the bill would require the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council to provide guidance to agencies on when to use bridge contracts.
