In this episode, we discuss public notices, such as pre-solicitation notices or special notices for contract requirements. For pre-solicitation notices, we review what the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) says is required for how far in advance the Government must publish the notice, if the notice can be combined with the solicitation or if the Government has to publish a notice at all. Special notices are for requirements that will notify industry that the Government will not be competing a requirement and why to be as transparent as possible. Listen in to hear more about why these public notices matter for businesses, why you should take interest, and how you can use these to plan out your upcoming year.
