What is Going on inside GSA Right Now

I am sure you have heard that the current administration is making pretty some big changes inside GSA. It can feel scary and overwhelming - but we aren't going anywhere. We will be here to support you through this and get to the other side. 

We spoke to a point of contact internal at GSA today to find out more, and here is what we know: Contracting Officers are ranked on a scale from 1-5 based on their performance. All lower performing CO's will be let go. They aim to hire 1 new CO for every 4 let go. They also intend to bring AI in, as a way to streamline modification reviews, and a real CO will oversee the AI's activity. We don't know when these changes will take place, but we do know this will likely mean slow downs in proposal reviews as well as modification reviews for a time. 

The government still intends to utilize the GSA for purchasing while minimizing overhead cost. 

I know this feels like an unstable, unpredictable time, but I just wanted to let you all know that we are still in your corner. 

GSA will announce a news alert this Friday, as well as at the end of February to their internal staff. We will do our best to get our hands on that info so we can share it with you all as soon as possible. 

If you’d like support through this please email us at info@elevategsa.com.
