Summary

Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act Amendments of 1983 - Amends the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act to eliminate the requirement that the Administrator of Federal Procurement Policy develop and submit to Congress for approval a uniform procurement system. Directs the Administrator to establish (currently, develop) a system of simplified and uniform policies, procedures, and regulations governing procurements by executive agencies. Permits the Administrator, with the concurrence of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget, to deny or rescind any agency rule relating to procurement if the Director determines that such rule is inconsistent with such policies, procedures, or regulation. (Current law requires the Director to deny or rescind such rules until a uniform procurement system is established.) Repeals a provision requiring the Administrator to propose to Congress changes in legislation relating to procurement. Requires the Administrator to transmit to specified congressional committees a detailed report on each proposed procurement regulation. Directs the head of each executive agency to: (1) develop plans to increase the use of full and open competition in agency procurements; (2) ensure that agency procurements are conducted in accordance with all laws, Government policies, and good business practices; (3) establish clear lines of responsibility for procurement decisionmaking; (4) appoint an agency official to direct the procurement system; and (5) maintain a procurement management career program. Authorizes appropriations to carry out the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act in FY 1984 through 1986.
