  7. What is Reverse Auctioning? • Reverse auctions are “downward price” auctions in which suppliers continue to lower their prices until the auction closes. • Revolutionary pricing tool: • Competition will likely drive prices down • Savings to the Government

  8. Reverse Auctioning • What makes a good candidate? • Auction items must be fully and accurately specified. • There must be two or more suppliers that agree to participate in the event • FAR 15.306(e)(3) prohibits any conduct that revels an offeror’s price without that offeror’s permission. • Analysis of the item to be reversed auctioned • i.e., “clear” specification, price margin associated, positive return on investment. • The solicitation should allow time for the training of suppliers and the configuration of the Dynamic Pricing Event.

  9. Reverse Auction Process • Suppliers submit technical proposals and initial price proposals • Suppliers are pre-screened and approved (Set the Competitive Range) • Only “invited suppliers can view or participate in auction”. • Offerors are anonymous to all except the buyer • Suppliers only see lowest offered prices, not competitor’s names • Evaluation criterion can be price or best value.

  10. Reverse Auction Process Competitive Requirement Train Contractors in Competitive Range Conduct Reverse Auction Synopsize Schedule Reverse Auction Buyer adds Reverse Auction clauses Post Auction Analysis Competitive Range Determination Release Solicitation Contract Award Proposals Due
