Requiring activities are sometimes asked to write work statements on subject matter with which they have little experience.

Use this as an outline for the work statement provisions.

The more vague the contract work statement, the more risk that the Government assumes.

Quite simply they are documented work statements for specific activities which rationalize and standardize the current working practice throughout the group.

Make the work statement concrete - numbers!

Overbundled requirements frequently suffer from very vague requirements and work statements, particularly in service contracts.

Work statement: Deliverable list with performance and objective specifications if not a service contract (no brand names except as example)

Thus, it is critical that an evaluation of the possible vendors who might compete for the overall work statement / deliverables be accomplished.

However, it is important that the proposal first and foremost address the solicitation's work statement or technical specifications and source selection factors.

Contractors competing for a government requirement have an opportunity to request clarification or amendment of a work statement or solicitation.

The stress-strain compatibility relationship was applied outside of the virtual work statement by means of a Lagrangian constraint.

Also, the automated systems frequently do not allow inclusion of various non standard work statement, instructions or clauses due to limitations on input options.

Schedule / milestones (included in work statement)

Deming/Six SIGMA style quality assessments and process analysis very useful in writing performance work statements.

It is often advantageous to construct a CLIN Schedule that matches an outline of the work statement.

Initially it was authorised as a Gisborne to Rotorua line, and labelled as such in the Public Works Statement until 1910.

FAR 37.601 has specific requirements for performance work statements (PWS) for service contracts requiring performance based standards.

Need a Performance Work Statement (PWS) with:

In trying to figure out how much detail you need in a work statement, ask "Can the contractor PRICE this work?"

Inadequate SSCs renders the best work statement and CLIN worthless.

Contractors add in contingency costs to cover the unknown factor of what the government ACTUALLY wants when the work statement is vague.

PWS is performance work statement, to summarize the work that needs to be done for a contract (i.e. with the U.S. Department of Defense).

In particular, many proposals include "fluff" or information which is generic and does not directly pertain to the government's need, source selection factors and work statement or performance specification.

But some professors and others say his carefully wrought statements in favor of open discussion often come across as the work of a deliberative legal scholar more than a forceful leader.

Where price is more important than non-price factors, then the lowest bidder who is technically acceptable in view of the source selection factors and work statement requirements will be selected.
