1.0 Introduction

1.1 Background

Historically, the Air Force (AF) used a variety of methods to tactically purchase carpet. This approach resulted in multiple decentralized processes and sourcing strategies that increased the overall cost of carpet acquisition and did not leverage the agency’s buying power. On 22 March 2009, the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Contracting established the Air Force Furnishings Commodity Council (AF FCC) to help improve cost efficiencies and ultimately reduce the total cost of ownership of furnishing procurements. Market analysis reflected that carpet was purchased using various contract vehicles and agencies. These included GSA schedules, one-time purchase orders, IDIQ contracts, and firm-fixed price contracts. The AF FCC partnered with AF Interior Design Personnel, Strategic Sourcing Personnel, and Contracting Specialists to standardize carpet requirements and t o award competitively four C-Type contracts with one small business (SB) reserved for the contiguous United States (CONUS). Mandatory use of these contracts will minimize duplication of effort, standardize procurement policy, and leverage purchasing power, resulting in a cost-effective procurement strategy that focuses on total life-cycle costs.
