Review of lowest-price federal buying rules
Sponsored by Byron Donalds
What the bill does
This bill requires the Office of Management and Budget to study whether a certain government purchasing method, called lowest price technically acceptable, creates any national security risks. The method picks the cheapest offer that meets basic requirements. The OMB must report its findings to Congress within 180 days.
The stakes
The way the government buys things, such as military equipment or IT services, can affect national security. This study could lead to changes in how taxpayer money is spent on contracts.
