    Original post

    The below has always confused me. I’ve always posted requirements when expected to exceed 25k.

    Pursuant to (1)i, have I been completing postings that aren’t required?

    c) Soliciting orally.

    (1) The contracting officer shall solicit quotations orally to the maximum extent practicable, if-

                     (i) The acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold;

                     (ii) Oral solicitation is more efficient than soliciting through available electronic commerce alternatives; and

                     (iii) Notice is not required under  5.101.

    What you're quoting doesn't get you out of posting a synopsis, if that's what you're asking.

    Synopsis as in pre solicitation? So a notice is not required if under 250k?

    No, I said it doesn't get you out of posting a synopsis.

    i) The acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold;  

    this seems clear. What am I missing?

    GABE,

    When is notice not required by FAR 5.101?

    Why would 5.101 apply? There isn’t “and”  following;

    1) The contracting officer shall solicit quotations orally to the maximum extent practicable, if-

                     (i) The acquisition does not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold;
