FIE - GSA Initiatives to Save Taxpayer Dollars Through Consolidating Procurement: A Conversation with Tom Meiron

As the federal marketplace evolves, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is taking bold steps to reduce duplication, drive efficiencies, and save taxpayer dollars. Executive Order 14240 directs agencies to eliminate waste and consolidate procurement of common goods and services under a “OneGov” approach.

Join Tom Meiron, Assistant Commissioner of GSA’s newly established Office of Centralized Acquisition Services (OCAS), for an in-depth fireside chat on how GSA is transforming acquisition practices to meet this mandate. Mr. Meiron will discuss the creation of OCAS as a cornerstone of GSA’s reform efforts, the agency’s strategy for centralizing procurement across government, and opportunities for industry partners to engage and add value.

This interactive session will explore:

• How GSA’s new centralized model streamlines acquisition of common goods and services
• The agency’s priorities in implementing E.O. 14240 and metrics for success
• Opportunities for vendors to support GSA’s mission and deliver cost savings
• Lessons learned from early pilots and what’s next for the new FAS organizational structure

This conversation offers a unique opportunity for the ACT-IAC community to hear directly from GSA leadership about the future of federal procurement and how public–private collaboration can help achieve greater savings and value for taxpayers.
