Enhancing Contractor Participation in Task Order Competitions

This report outlines the strategies employed by the United States Office of Personnel Management to ensure active participation of new contractors in Task Order Competitions (TOCs). The project manager plays a pivotal role in inviting new contractors while ensuring that each TOC includes at least one newcomer to promote diversity. Through thorough research and the development of a contractor database detailing past performances, the TMA aims to facilitate sound contractor selections. All contractors must maintain an informative website with TMA-related project details for better selection assessments.
