5 Types of Contractor Purchasing System Reviews (CPSRs) Initial - System not yet evaluated and Contractor meets FAR (CPSRs) dollar threshold requirement Review addresses all 24 system criteria in DFARS , Contractor Purchasing System Administration Comprehensive - System previously approved and usually conducted 3 years after initial or previous review Review addresses all 24 system criteria in DFARS , Contractor Purchasing System Administration Follow-up - Validation of Correction Action Plan (CAP) on a disapproved purchasing system Review addresses previously identified deficiencies Special - Evaluation of specific risk areas Review addresses one or more of the 24 system criteria in DFARS , Contractor Purchasing System Administration 5
6 Who determines the need for a CPSR? ACO identifies the need and requests a CPSR Contractors do not request CPSRs The ACO determines the need for a CPSR based on the prime award and subcontract volume Also considered are: subcontract types, program complexity, and past performance The ACO is responsible for determining approval, disapproval, or withholding of approval of the contractor s purchasing system 6
7 How is a CPSR scheduled? CPSR group uses the term Emerging System to identify a contractor who is eligible for an initial review The ACO and contractor complete a Risk Assessment form to request a CPSR when: The $25M Threshold is met Risk factors have been identified Consent to subcontract* requests are increasing in volume *Consent to subcontract is required if the prime does not have an approved purchasing system and the Government is assuming a large portion of contract risk 7
8 How is a CPSR scheduled? CPSR group uses the term Existing System to identify a contractor who has an approved purchasing system CPSR group sends out an Annual Tasker to DCMA ACOs reminding them of the need to reevaluate the approved purchasing systems Reasons for reevaluations: 3 years or greater since last approval Risk factors identified Contractor not reviewed under current business system criteria (Final Rule 2012) 8
9 CPSR Pre-Review Once an ACO request for CPSR is received, review is assigned to a team based on contractor geographic location (CPSR team locations; Boston, Atlanta, Phoenix and Dallas) The lead Procurement Analyst will contact the Contractor to confirm dates & request the following information: PO s/subcontracts issued during a one year period Contractor s policies and procedures Contractor s terms and conditions CPSR will identify specific contract requirements using Government databases such as; EDA, MOCAS, EITS, FPDS 9
10 CPSR Pre-Review CPSR team will also request input from the following DCMA functional specialists: ACO Quality Assurance Small Business Supply Chain Management CPSR team utilizes a random based sampling tool to select the purchasing instruments to be reviewed CPSR in-brief is scheduled for the first day of the onsite review 1 0
11 How long is an On-Site Review? Initial or Comprehensive 1-2 weeks with 2-3 analysts (based on sample size) Follow-up 1 week with 2 analysts Special 1-2 weeks with 2-3 analysts 11
12 Review Elements CPSR evaluates your files for compliance with 34 review elements See CPSR Guidebook for details ( The 34 review elements are based on: FAR/DFARS clauses that flow-down from your prime awards to subcontracts The 24 Criteria identified in DFARS (c) 12
13 CPSR On-Site Activities Entrance briefing with Contractor & Government personnel Physical review of selected sample based on the 24 criteria listed in DFARS (c) Discussion on policies and procedures Utilization of question sheets to allow the contractor to provide clarity or additional information as issues arise Conduct buyer interviews Conduct daily briefs to keep the Contractor and ACO informed of arising concerns or issues Exit briefing conducted to provide contractor with preliminary findings (compilation of the daily briefs) 1 3
14 CPSR Post Review Analyze data and develop statistics Prepare a report addressing the contractor s policy and practice for each of the review elements Report released to ACO within 30 business days of exit briefing When deficiencies are identified, the Procurement Analyst will initiate a Corrective Action Request (CAR) as appropriate 1 4
15 ACO System Determination Contracting Officer determines whether a purchasing system is approved or disapproved If no significant deficiencies exist, the ACO will issue a final determination approving the system (within 10 days of receipt of CPSR report) If the ACO suspects one or more significant deficiencies exist, the ACO will issue an Initial Determination identifying significant deficiencies (within 10 days of receipt of CPSR report) The contractor has 30 days to respond to the ACO If the ACO determines the contractor response to be adequate, the ACO will make a final determination of system approval 1 5
16 ACO System Determination If the contractor response is not adequate, the system is disapproved and the ACO issues a Level III CAR identifying the significant deficiencies The ACO requests a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) from the Contractor The Contractor has 45 days to either correct the deficiencies or provide an acceptable CAP Follow up reviews are conducted on disapproved systems within 90 days of notification by the contractor and ACO that corrective actions have been completed For deficiencies that may not rise to the level of significant, the CPSR Procurement Analyst issues a Level II CAR and the contractor works with the PA to resolve the Lev II CAR 1 6
17 Preparing for a CPSR Review the criteria (DFARS ) for an acceptable system Review CPSR Guidebook ( Assure your policies & procedures align with FAR/DFARS requirements Assure your files are compliant with your policies and procedures and FAR/DFARS requirements Files should be stand-alone and tell the whole acquisition story 17
