Question:

What is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA)?

Answer:

A BPA is actually an agreement.  That agreement provides us a streamlined process to award orders against it that are within the scope of that agreement.  It is not appropriate to include funding on the agreement, as it is not a contract.The task order is how we acquire work under the BPA and fund it.  These are mini-contracts.  The award process is streamlined, in that we can order off of the agreement and do not require a Market Research report and Acquisition Plan as part of the acquisition package.
