QSO 349 Module One Activity Guidelines and Rubric

There are four activity assignments in this course that provide practice in developing key components of successful procurement planning and management. The
first activity is a summary of the five basic types of contracts.

Procurement officers and the U.S. government must follow rules for contracting and procurement, referred to as Federal Acquisition Regulations (FARs).
Important procurement-planning skills include understanding the differences among contract types and being able to determine which type is appropriate for
the circumstance.

Review Selecting the Type of Contract and Types of Contracts. In a one- to two-page document, summarize the five basic types of contracts described in the FARs
and, in your own words, list four key factors to consider when selecting the type of contract.

Guidelines for Submission: The contract selection document should be a one- to two-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New
Roman font, and one-inch margins.
