Plan to increase number of
contractors eligible for contracts under Air Force NETCENTS-2
contract (sec. 866) The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 889C) that would require the Secretary of Defense to develop a plan to increase the number of contractors eligible to be awarded contracts under the Air Force's Network-Centric Solutions-2 (NETCENTS-2) indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract. The Secretary would be required to submit that plan to the congressional defense committees within 180 days of enactment of this Act. The House bill contained no similar provision. The House recedes. |
