The Administration is leading a critical government-wide effort to modernize federal procurement, which includes the consolidation of government-wide spending for domestic common goods and services. We are pleased to invite you to the official kickoff training for this initiative.

This effort, in support of Executive Order 14240 and OMB Memo M-25-31, is designed to drive significant savings, boost efficiency, eliminate duplication, and strengthen mission-critical contracting support across all agencies.
The kickoff training will provide a deep dive into the two foundational workstreams:

• Workstream 1: Consolidated Contracts

  • Focuses on maximizing efficiency by aligning with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Revolutionary Overhaul, where agencies’ default is to use GSA government-wide contracts and shared services first (e.g., GO.gov, Fleet, Global Supply, GWAC, MAS, etc.).

  • Training will cover streamlined ordering processes, reducing time on market research, and maintaining agency control/flexibility.

• Workstream 2: Centralized Acquisition

  • This voluntary track offers agencies a full range of additional acquisition support through GSA-led contracting services.

  • The training will detail the two available services: 

    • Office of Centralized Acquisition Services (OCAS) for common goods and services

    • Assisted Acquisition Services (AAS) for complex, critical acquisitions.
