From page 97...
... Criteria for identification of a mission or project optimal for chartering has been discussed in the previous chapters and particularly in Chapter 5. Evaluation of an optimal mission area for charter potential must take into account factors such as the type of charter arrangement desired (bare boat, time charter, or turnkey)
From page 98...
... The NOAA Directives Manual states that the Office of Marine Operations (OMO) is the NOM office responsible for coordinating charter vessel leases.
From page 99...
... Comparisons of cost must ensure that the government and commercial accounting systems view specifications and costs in the same way, and that the true cost to the government, including tax consequences, be considered. The low bid should not be the decisive criterion for selecting a charter or contract service.
From page 100...
... It will be important that NOAA be prepared to receive and evaluate these deliverables and to transmit the results on to end users and archives Determine Cost Savings As part of contract monitoring, NOAA must be prepared to document the cost of contract performance so that future chartering and contracting budget estimates can be prepared with greater accuracy, using knowledge gained through experience. With satisfactory results obtained through chartering and contracting, NOAA will evolve procedures by which additional mission areas can be accomplished, where appropriate, through the use of contractor services.
