The purposes of the act were to enhance competition and better limit unnecessary sole-source contracting. GAO found that some provisions in two government- wide regulations--the Federal Acquisition Regulation and the Federal Information Resources Management Regulation--need to be revised to be consistent with the requirements of the act or with congressional intent, as expressed in the House and Senate Confe- rence Committee report on the act. Other provisions need to be revised to better implement the act's objectives. GAO also found that some agencies and subagencies had not properly revised their acqui- sition regulations to conform to the act. GAO makes recommendations to revise the Federal Acquisition Regulation, the Federal Information Re- sources Management Regulation, and various agencies' and subagencies' acquisition regulations. 04- GAO/OGC-85-14 AuGUST 21, 1985
