H.R. 2006, VA Procurement Efficiency and Transparency Act (CBO Report for Congress)

Premium   Download PDF Now (1 page)
Congress 115th
Date Requested July 19, 2017
Requested By House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs
Date Sent July 21, 2017
Description:

H.R. 2006 would require the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to calculate and record any cost savings realized from using competitive procedures for contracts awarded by the department. H.R. 2006 also would require VA to develop and use standard procurement templates across the department, where applicable.

 

On the basis of information from VA, CBO expects that the requirement to both calculate and record cost savings could be implemented without increasing VA’s staffing levels. Additionally, according to VA, the agency currently attempts to standardize the procurement process to the extent possible, so developing standard procurement templates for contracts would not require a significant departure from current practice. Therefore, CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2006 would cost less than $500,000 over the 2017-2022 period, subject to the availability of appropriations.
