Your comments will help us determine if we are accomplishing this and show us ways to improve our processes. Please consider taking the time to complete the survey.

ORCA is a web-based system that centralizes and standardizes the collection, storage and viewing of many of the representations and certifications required by the Federal Acquisition Regulations and previously found in solicitations. According to the language included in FAR Case 2001-026, vendors are required to use ORCA beginning 1 January 2005. Detailed information can be found in the FAR Case, as well as by visiting the Help section of the website at http://orca.bpn.gov. The help section includes ORCA background information, frequently asked questions (FAQ), the ORCA Handbook, and whom to! call for assistance.
