English to Spanish Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Blanket Purchase Agreement

The Organization may choose to enter into a blanket purchase agreement (BPA), Appendix XI with preferred vendors. A BPA is simplified acquisition method used to fill anticipated repetitive needs for supplies or services. Essentially, BPAs are like charge accounts set up with trusted suppliers.

BPAs are permitted when:

● There is a need to provide commercial sources of supply for one or more offices or projects in a given area that do not have or need authority to purchase otherwise.

● The use of this procedure would avoid the writing of numerous purchase orders.

● There is no **existing requirements contract** for the same supply or service that the contracting activity is required to use.

*Contratos actuales de requisitos*, como si no tiene mucho sentido en español o puede que yo esté mal interpretando el término.
