Description
Briefing Overview:
Unsolicited proposals allow federal agencies to receive a proposal and contract directly with vendors without a formal solicitation or request for proposal (RFP). The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) provides this procurement method so the government can benefit from the knowledge and concepts of the private sector to find innovative ideas, new technology, overcome challenges and assess effectiveness of different methodologies that can help meet agency mission. Some agencies have dedicated staff to assist with the unsolicited proposal process and are actively working on unsolicited proposals for innovative products, technology, or management approach and to address a specific agency need before a formal requirement is developed.
