What appears efficient in the short term can become costly over time.

When training does not reflect an agency’s real operating environment, learners often struggle to apply concepts consistently in practice — increasing the likelihood of clarification work, remediation, and oversight concerns later.

BMRA is proud to support the HomeAid National Capital Region Builders for Babies Diaper Drive for the fourth year in a row. To date, BMRA's team has contributed over 23,800 diapers and wipes to this great cause and we're excited to continue our support this Mothers Day

This community‑wide effort collects diapers and wipes for babies and toddlers experiencing or at risk of homelessness. With rising costs and ongoing supply challenges, these essentials are needed now more than ever. Diapers and wipes also cannot be purchased with SNAP or WIC benefits, making donations especially critical.

Donations are collected between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day and distributed to local nonprofit organizations serving our region.

📜 On This Day in Federal Acquisition History

On April 1, 1984, the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) was published for the first time, creating a single, uniform framework for how the federal government buys goods and services.

More than 40 years later, the FAR reached another milestone. Last year's Revolutionary FAR
Overhaul (RFO) marked the most significant update to the regulation since its original publication, reshaping policies, processes, and priorities across federal procurement.

📚Want to understand both where the FAR started and where it is headed next?

Our courses help students build practical FAR knowledge, from foundational principles to the latest reforms.
