Standard Summary
Comprehensive overview

This executive order aims to reduce government waste and save taxpayer money by consolidating federal procurement of common goods and services under the General Services Administration (GSA). It directs agencies to transition their procurement functions to the GSA, which was originally established to provide efficient procurement services. The order argues that consolidating these activities will eliminate duplication, reduce costs, and allow agencies to focus on their core missions rather than administrative functions.

Key Points

  • 2Directs GSA to create a comprehensive government-wide procurement plan within 90 days
  • 3Designates GSA as the executive agent for all government-wide IT acquisition contracts
  • 4Requires rationalization of indefinite delivery contract vehicles for IT to eliminate duplication
  • 5Specifies that implementation must comply with existing laws and budget constraints
