Said CRS, “A longstanding problem of competitive sourcing has been the dearth of accurate, reliable, useful, and comprehensive information about agency competitive sourcing activities and outcomes. Information has been made available, or otherwise obtained, on an ad hoc basis. Notable exceptions are DoD’s Commercial Activities Management Information System and the release of FAIR inventories and inherently governmental inventories. The statutory requirement for agencies to provide the same competitive sourcing information on a regular basis to Congress might aid in conducting oversight of the competitive sourcing initiative.”
