* eFMS - Not Defined, represents contract actions that were executed before the new competitive contracting codes were implemented in the eFMS system on March 31, 2012.
Sixty-six federal departments reported contract actions and commitments via the Federal Procurement Data System – Next Generation (FPDS-NG) and classified them as competitive or noncompetitive during the same reporting period as the Postal Service. This information is available via an annual FPDS-NG Competition Advocate (CA) report. For the period spanning October 1, 2011, to September 30, 2012, the FPDS-NG CA report identified $515.6B in contract commitments of which 63.2% were awarded competitively. This compares to $5.1B in contract commitments reported by the USPS\u00A8 of which 78.9% were awarded competitively.
See Appendix F for more details related to the FPDS-NG Competition Advocate report.
