Yep, this is an effort to make it easier for the government. By pre-approving contractors, they have fewer people they have to deal with. To be clear, anyone can become a prime contractor I.e. get access. It can just be pretty confusing and

Thanks for the link. We think to only way to make progress is to get into the complexity and realize there are good and bad parts. Not just dismiss it as completely broken. Hopefully this link won't be as relevant in 5 years as it is t
