Government agencies today increasingly look beyond contracting governed by the Federal Acquisition Regulation system to buy innovative products and solutions. Military and civilian agencies are leveraging Other Transaction Authority (OTA) to more flexibly acquire commercial innovation. Hear from procurement experts and government officials about current trends, strategies and best practices for buying commercial technology and services.
