Technology Acquisition Center Innovative Acquisition Techniques 24

Innovative Acquisition Techniques This past year, the TAC used many innovative acquisition techniques to include, but not limited to: Multi-Step Advisory Evaluation Process – Offerors were required to submit a succinct technical submission for Step 1 (Advisory Step) which resulted in an Advisory Notification to each Offeror. This process differed from the Federal Acquisition Regulation 15. 202 Advisory Multi-Step process because it was used within the evaluation itself and resulted in a Technical Rating which ultimately weighted in the best value decision for award); Technical Demonstrations – uses a “show me, don’t tell me” evaluation approach • • • Functional prototypes – Offerors are given complex Use Cases as examples of VA’s requirement, and are required to develop and submit functional prototypes for evaluation; or In-person demonstrations – Offerors showcase their agile processes and related services (e. g. Dev. Ops) in response to a Use Case which is provided at the start of the demonstration; or Virtual or off-site sample tasks – Offerors are given access to a private Git. Hub repository and are required to deliver a functional prototype with related artifacts in a specified period of time. 25
