Doan - GSA seeks advice on schedule program...

While it sounds nice (new advisory panel to begin an in-depth review of the General Services Administration’s policies and regulations for schedule contracts) http://www.fcw.com/online/news/152271-1.html,  I'm pessimistic of any  substitutive  recommendations by 15 acquisition experts ever being implemented. 

I also question the benefits of a two-year panel.  How about a two-day off-site session next month? Why wait two-years?  By that time, we'll undoubtedly have a new GSA Administrator with their own initiatives.
Why having auditor clones is unlikely, it would be nice to have some common expectations by the auditors.  While the auditors have their GSA Report Card to follow, each seems to have their own agenda and determination to find fault. 

I find it absurd that "serious concerns exist" if a GSA contractor has a negative determination to one of the first ten questions on a GSA Report Card http://vsc.gsa.gov/casi/New_Casi.pdf.   So, since when is receiving a 90% satisfactory report generate concerns?
