Subject: Acquisition Strategy Summary, Deliverable Request, & Discussion
Glad you were able to review the core principles of an acquisition plan! Now I’d like you to use what you’ve learned to write a brief 1–2 page acquisition strategy summary. This should outline the acquisition strategy you want to use for our cell phone purchase and provide background on your choice.
Please review this example digital device purchase document. Consider the following questions:

What can you learn from the example device purchase?
Did the schedule for the product acquisition support a successful delivery?
How could the budget of this purchase be negotiated and improved for a better deal?
Consider the needs for the department’s cell phone purchase. Think thoroughly about the acquisition strategy that best fits the purchase and CTI as a government organization.

As you write your acquisition strategy summary, apply the FAR guidelines to the purchase. Include the following:
What acquisition strategy do you propose for the cell phone purchase and why?

What FAR regulations will assist you in the purchase?

How do FAR regulations affect the acquisition plan objectives?
This summary will become part of the background for your acquisition plan. It should go in the Background section of the acquisition plan template. Keep track of any reference documents you receive to include in your document history as you progress and through this course.

Use the drop box to submit your brief acquisition summary for review. Then, share your summary in the Summary of Strategies discussion, where you will discuss perspectives on strategies and the FAR rules with your peers.
Thanks,
Robyn
