Are BPA s only for Simplified Acquisition Purchases and are they still restricted to $100,000?
The use of BPA s under Multiple Award Schedules has been permitted for a long time. Check Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)13.202(c): “BPA s may also be established with Federal Supply Schedule contracts….” In the past, individual orders under a BPA could not exceed the maximum order limitation. Today, that is no longer true. With the removal of the maximum limitation, agencies are no longer restricted by any dollar limitations when placing orders under a schedule BPA.
