Sec. 300.506  Requirements of procurement.

    (a) Agencies must follow the Federal procurement laws and the 
Federal Acquisition Regulation, as applicable, in procuring services 
from the private sector.
    (b) Agencies should make full use of the provisions of the Federal 
procurement system to make clear that the firm is the legally 
responsible employer and to specify the obligations the firm will have 
to meet to provide effective performance including such matters as the 
types and levels of skills to be provided, deadlines for providing 
service, liability insurance, and, when necessary, security 
requirements. The Federal procurement system also requires contractors 
to comply with affirmative action requirements to employ and advance in 
employment qualified disabled and Vietnam era veterans as provided in 41 
CFR part 60-250, and with public policy programs including equal 
employment opportunity, handicapped employment, and small businesses.
