The General Services Administration is launching a major restructuring of the Federal Acquisition Service, consolidating acquisition programs into five new portfolios designed to modernize procurement and improve efficiency across government. Former FAS Deputy Commissioner Tom Howder joins Fed Gov Today to explain why GSA is moving from an industry-based model to a product-based approach, what it means for Multiple Award Schedules, GWACs, and assisted acquisition services, and how artificial intelligence and automation fit into the agency’s future. Howder also discusses the uncertain future of TTS, why communication is critical during large reorganizations, and how agencies and vendors could be impacted.
