Fedscoop: The Department of Homeland Security officials in charge of a recently cancelled innovative acquisition vehicle accepted their fault in the failed program Tuesday, positioning it as an opportunity to learn from their missteps.
After numerous protests hampered the department’s ability to get its $1.5 billion Flexible Agile Support for the Homeland contract vehicle up and running, DHS finally cancelled the procurement in late May, officials said.
