§ 3515.503 - General.

(f) Unsolicited proposals for the performance of services are, except as discussed in this paragraph, unacceptable as the performance of services is unlikely to necessitate innovative and unique concepts. There may be rare instances in which an unsolicited proposal offers an innovative and unique approach to the accomplishment of a service. If such a proposal offers a previously unknown or an alternative approach to generally recognized techniques for the accomplishment of a specific service, and such approach will provide significantly greater economy or enhanced quality, it may be considered for acceptance, provided that such acceptance can be made in conformance with the policy in 3515.502.
