Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
There may be as many manuals on how to do business with the government as there are federal specifications for "dispenser, drinking water, nonmechanically cooled" or for "cups and lids, paper, cold drink." Most are similar, attempting to "translate" dense, bureaucratese-laden regulations and filled with reproduced forms necessary for federal contracting. One of the standout guides has been McVay's, now updated from the 1987 edition. McVay, a certified professional contracts manager and former federal contracting officer, covers the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (something of an oxymoron) passed in October 1994. Part of the intent of the new legislation is to make it easier for smaller businesses to sell to the government, and McVay provides invaluable guidance on how to take advantage of the new rules.

Review
This revised, expanded third edition reflects new laws signed last October, which have made sweeping legal changes in the field: as such it's essential that this latest edition be consulted over prior titles. The new changes are fully explained and explored in a fine review of federal purchasing procedures and how they relate to contractors' efforts. -- Midwest Book Review
