ROCK ISLAND ARSENAL, Ill. -- The Logistics Civil Augmentation Program office and Army Contracting Command -- Rock Island participated in the Services Acquisition Workshop hosted by Defense Acquisition University, here, Jan. 12-14.
The workshop provided training to a cross-functional acquisition team preparing a performance-based requirements document in support of a services contract; in this case, the LOGCAP V requirement.
This was one of the first actions taken by the two organizations as they work through the seven steps of the service acquisition process. The goal is to get the best value for future LOGCAP task orders.
The Services Acquisition Worskshop is mandated by the Department of Defense for service procurements estimated to exceed $1 billion. It lays the foundation for developing a high-quality requirements package to present to industry for solicitation. It's also a key element in the DoD's strategy to implement Better Buying Power initiatives and improve tradecraft in the acquisition of services.
LOGCAP is a program administered by the U.S. Army to provide contingency support to augment the Army force structure and uses global corporate resources to support military needs.
