TITLE VIII--ACQUISITION POLICY, ACQUISITION MANAGEMENT, AND RELATED MATTERS

Subtitle F--Provisions Relating to Commercial Items

P. L. 114-

House Conference Report. 114-840

“(1) establish and maintain a centralized capability with necessary expertise and resources to provide assistance to the military departments and Defense Agencies in making commercial item determinations, conducting market research, and performing analysis of price reasonableness for the purposes of procurements by the Department of Defense; and

“(2) provide to officials of the Department of Defense access to previous Department of Defense commercial item determinations, market research, and analysis used to determine the reasonableness of price for the purposes of procurements by the Department of Defense.”.

The House amendment contained a provision (sec. 824) that would amend section 2380 of title 10, United States Code, to expand Department of Defense centralized records relating to commercial item determinations to include market research and price reasonableness analysis. This section would also eliminate the requirement that such records be publicly accessible.

The Senate bill contained no similar provision.

The Senate recedes.
