CBPA

Contracting Business Process Automation

Definition

Contracting Business Process Automation refers to the use of technology to automate repetitive tasks and workflows in the procurement process. CBPA initiatives aim to reduce administrative burden, accelerate procurement timelines, and improve accuracy by automating functions such as document generation, approval routing, and data entry.

Federal agencies increasingly invest in CBPA solutions to address acquisition workforce constraints and improve procurement efficiency. Common applications include automated solicitation generation, electronic proposal receipt and evaluation, contract writing systems, and invoice processing automation. CBPA implementations must comply with FAR requirements and maintain appropriate audit trails.
