The decisive military advantage of the United States over its adversaries and peer competitors is steadily eroding.

Use of a CSO in accordance with Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement Subpart 212.70 is considered to be a competitive procedure for the purposes of 10 U.S.C. 221 and Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.102. Finally, Contracting Officers shall treat items, technologies, and services acquired using a CSO as commercial products and commercial services. Contracts or agreements under this authority shall be fixed-price, including fixed-price incentive fee contracts.
