Scott and Jim have Sal Cianci, Professor of Contract Management at DAU, back to continue our discussion on the changes to the DoD Source Selection Procedures.  In part 4, Sal talks about the two techniques introduced in Appendix D (Streamlining Source Selection) of the guide.  These two techniques discussed are Past Performance Tradeoff (PPT) and Highest Technically Rated Offeror (HTRO).  Both have been around and used by different DoD organizations, and DoD/DPC thought it would be good to in inform Contracting Officers of these methods/techniques, for their consideration for future source selections, where it makes sense.

This is a 5 part series - In Part 5 of this series, we will be talking with Kurt Webb, Professor of Contract Management, and a lawyer, about Appendix E, Intellectual Property.
