In accordance with FAR 6.102(d)(3), use of the Multiple Award Schedules Program is considered a “competitive procedure” under the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984 (CICA) when the MAS ordering procedures are followed; i.e., the Ordering Procedures For Services And Products Not Requiring A Statement Of Work in FAR 8.404 and the Ordering Procedures For Services (Requiring A Statement of Work). Thus, when an MAS BPA is established as a result of compliance with MAS ordering procedures, any order placed against the BPA meets CICA requirements.
