Workforce Quality and Federal Procurement: An Assessment

Abstract

This report examines the quality of the members of the Federal procurement workforce and the work they perform. The study found that although contract specialists and their supervisors believe members of the procurement workforce are well-qualified to perform their jobs, clients are not altogether satisfied with the quality of the service they receive. The implications of these findings are discussed and recommendations are offered for improving the quality of Federal contracting efforts.
