The FAIR (Federal Acquisition Innovation & Reform) Institute, a nonpartisan and nonprofit* organization, works with key constituencies to promote a federal acquisition system that continually innovates to meet government policy objectives, exceeds world class standards of performance, and ensures the prudent use of taxpayer dollars.

FAIR is organized around three guiding principles:

• Promote fact-based policies that optimize the entire acquisition system and drive optimal value for government while ensuring compliance with regulations
• Engage key constituencies in order to ensure various perspectives are considered when proposing solutions
• Focus on long-term sustainable practices that meet or exceed world-class standards of performance
