Subpart 813.1—Procedures

813.106   Soliciting competition, evaluation of quotations or offers, award and documentation.

813.106-70   Oral purchase orders.

When advantageous to VA, the contracting officer may use an oral purchase order for transactions not in excess of $3,000. This limitation does not apply to delivery orders against existing contracts, e.g., delivery orders against Federal Supply Schedule contracts.
