Excerpt
Excerpt: Background Competitive sourcing is one of the five President?s Management Agenda initiatives designed to make the government more cost-effective, while encouraging innovation in its operation. Like all federal agencies, DOE has been tasked by the President to use competitive sourcing as a tool to improve the efficiency and performance of the federal government. The resulting competitions will determine whether to have the competed activities performed in-house by DOE employees in a more efficient and productive way, to arrange to have them provided by another federal agency, or to contract out the functions to the private-sector. Experiences elsewhere in the federal government demonstrate that these competitions will lead to significant cost savings, whether competitions are won by more efficient federal organizations or by the private-sector.
