Back To Basics Contracting Overview

On September 2, 2020, the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment launched “Back-to-Basics” to bring the Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act of 1990 into the 21st century. Getting “Back-to-Basics” means a refocus of our resources on the Defense Acquisition Workforce who develop, acquire, and sustain operational capability.

Furthermore, WHAT we buy, determines HOW we buy it, and there are strict regulations that must be followed to ensure the best value for the taxpayer. So, let’s take a quick look at how the Contracting Certification framework will change and what will be expected from you as you progress through your contracting career.
