SOAG

Special Operations Competition Advocate General

Definition

The Special Operations Competition Advocate General is the official within U.S. Special Operations Command responsible for promoting full and open competition in SOCOM acquisitions. The SOAG reviews acquisition strategies, challenges unnecessary restrictions on competition, and ensures compliance with competition requirements.

Like competition advocates at other agencies, the SOAG works to maximize competitive opportunities while recognizing legitimate needs for limited competition in certain circumstances. Contractors can engage with SOAG offices to understand competition strategies and advocate for fair opportunity to compete on SOCOM requirements.
