What is the Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiative (FSSI)?

In May of 2005, OMB, Office of Federal Procurement Policy (OFPP) released a memorandum to all Federal Chief Acquisition, Information, and Financial Officers announcing the establishment of a Strategic Sourcing Initiative. The memo required all agencies identify no fewer than three commodities "that could be purchased more effectively and efficiently through the application of strategic sourcing ..." by October 1, 2005; develop strategic sourcing plans, goals and objectives, and performance measures; develop a governance structure; and develop communications and training strategies. GSA, in partnership with Treasury, launched FSSI on November 16, 2005.

FSSI is co-chaired by the U.S. Department of the Treasury and GSA, and counts more than 23 federal agencies, both military and civilian, as active participants. Current FSSI commodity teams include Express and Ground Domestic Delivery Services (exGDDS), Wireless Telecommunications Expense Management (TEM) Services, Information ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
