In this episode of Contracting Conversations, Scott and Jim have Sal Cianci, Professor of Contract Management at DAU, back to continue our discussion on the changes to the DoD Source Selection Procedures.  In part 2, Sal talks about the new definitions of Significant Strength, Uncertainty, and Quality. and how each would be used in the proposal evaluations.

This is a 5 part series - look for parts 3 and 4 with Sal, where we also discuss Debriefings and Appendix D.   In addition, in Part 5 of this series, we will be talking with Kurt Webb, Professor of Contract Management, and a lawyer, about Appendix E, Intellectual Property.
