PERFORMANCE-BASED SERVICE CONTRACTING (PBSC) TRAINING COURSE

Agencies across government are looking to Performance-Based Service Contracting (PBSC) to ensure greater success in meeting business objectives.

PBSC focuses on developing contracts that define desired results, meaningful performance standards, and practical measurement methods. A much more collaborative contracting method, PBSC results in more effective contracts and vendor relationships, with risks and rewards shared through incentives and disincentives.

Jefferson Solutions' PBSC training course is geared to helping federal agencies increase the effectiveness of their contracting efforts by offering:

  • A highly interactive learning process, tailored to both program and contracting officials
  • Insight into policy goals, objectives, and benefits of using PBSC
  • Thorough, practical overview of PBSC methodology
  • Agency-specific discussions of applicability and challenges of implementing PBSC
  • Real-life application exercises using actual agency requirements as examples, facilitated by Jefferson Solutions training professionals
The course was developed by Solutions' President, Dr. Allan Burman, former Administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) and author of the OFFP Letter on Performance-Based Service Contracting.

Jefferson Solutions has trained hundreds of federal agency employees on PBSC since 1997. Participants report the following results:
