The GWAC consolidates agency IT contracts to reduce administrative burden, duplication, and accelerate cost savings
WASHINGTON — Today, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced the phase 1 awards of the Alliant 3 Governmentwide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) enterprise-level information technology services contract designed to help federal agencies acquire complex IT solutions with speed, consistency, and value for taxpayers. The Alliant 3 GWAC supports federal IT modernization and expands access to emerging technology services across agencies.
Alliant 3 is structured as a pre-competed, multiple-award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract, enabling agencies to issue task orders for comprehensive services such as systems engineering, cloud services, cybersecurity, data solutions, software development, and other emerging technology-related support.
“This is a critical step in modernizing government IT infrastructure and directly supports President Trump’s initiative to consolidate federal procurement,” said Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum. “By offering a streamlined approach to IT procurement, this contract offering not only reduces duplication and lowers administrative costs, but also significantly strengthens the federal government’s overall purchasing power.”
“Alliant 3 embodies GSA’s commitment to delivering smarter buying for the federal enterprise by simplifying how agencies access critical IT services through a single, governmentwide contract,” said Assistant Commissioner for the GSA Office of Information Technology Category (ITC), Lawrence Hale. “It enables agencies to adopt modern technologies more quickly, strengthen performance and security, and deliver measurable results for the American taxpayer.”
The Alliant 3 contract expands on the legacy of previous Alliant vehicles by providing a broad, unrestricted pool of industry partners evaluated for technical capability and past performance. With Alliant 3, agencies can drive competition at the task-order level and achieve best-value outcomes while ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and procurement reform directives.
Alliant 3 also supports the implementation of Executive Order 14240 which directs federal agencies to consolidate domestic procurement of common goods and services within GSA to reduce duplication, increase efficiency, and enable agencies to focus on mission delivery.
