This thesis discusses problems caused in government |
|
procurement by the annual budget cycle, appropriations |
|
process, and the legal and policy limitations placed on |
|
the use of appropriations. In particular, the limitations |
|
placed on the use of appropriations limit the most |
|
effective competitive procurement practices, because some |
|
potential suppliers hesitate to enter the government |
|
market for supplies and services or to commit capital |
|
because funding levels have been uncertain, and because |
|
economies of scale have often been unobtainable due to |
|
restrictions placed on the use of annual funds. These |
|
limitations also have hampered the effort of federal |
|
agencies to develop and retain suppliers, to foster |
|
competition to secure the lowest prices, to supply long |
|
leadtime items and to preserve the industrial base to |
|
meet mobilization needs. This thesis is intended to |
|
develop the theoretical and practical interface between |
|
fiscal law principles and government procurement law |
|
principles. It discusses the contracting techniques the |
|
agencies have developed to cope with the slowness and |
|
limited nature of appropriations, especially in cases in |
|
which agencies have real needs but either none or only |
|
part of the appropriations required to satisfy that need. |
