Contracting Cone

The WarU Contracting Cone is currently undergoing updates to reflect changes from the RFO. The update is anticipated to be complete on 1 Jul 2026. In the meantime, changes will be reflected in real-time.

The Contracting Cone outlines the full spectrum of available FAR and Non-FAR contract strategies. The supporting materials provide details about each contracting strategy, to enable collaborative discussions to select the right strategy based on environment, constraints, and desired outcomes. The goal of the interactive graphic below is to provide visibility into new or lesser known strategies and ensure the full range of contract strategies are considered.
