(Hill & Hupe, 2002) it is for this reason that the department has chosen to create the new position, Sustainability Review Agent to provide the theoretical, i
In other words the need to maintain overall and project-based budgets overrides the need to procure products based on sustainability and therefore the Team Leader must to some degree be neutral while still making good decisions about materials changes with regard to sustainability. (Kassel, 2010) the Sustainability Review Agent must then supervise decisions that are made regarding the sustainability of materials and then either actively find alternatives that are more sustainable or support the sustainability of materials already in use and ultimately how they might be better used to improve sustainability and possibly even improve costs

Procurement Law Overview, Part One Solicitation Elements The federal government's basic procurement or acquisition process involves an agency identifying the goods and services it needs also known as the agency's requirements, determining the most appropriate method for purchasing these items, and carrying out the acquisition. Although this process is simple in theory, any given procurement can be complex, involving a multitude of decisions and actions (Halchin, 2006)
Since 1980, the Bayh-Dole Act has streamlined how the government deals with private intellectual property and make simpler the acquisition of intellectual property by the government while expanding new protections to the contractor. The Act's policy statement presents the basic approach that the government should take with regard to intellectual property: It is the policy and objective of the Congress to make sure that the Government attain sufficient rights in federally supported inventions to meet the needs of the Government and protect the public against non-use or difficult use of inventions and to diminish the costs of administering rules in this area (Norment, 2008)
However the law provides exceptions that permit negotiation in those situations where formal advertising is not appropriate. Formal advertising is used when all the following conditions exist: definitive specifications are used, adequate competition is expected to be available, selection can be made on the basis of the low responsive, responsible bidder and sufficient time exists to solicit, receive and evaluate bids, and determine the responsibility and responsiveness of the low bidder (Position Classification Standard for Contracting Series, GS-1102, 1983)
