Guide to GSA Technology Contracts

Acquisition Options for Your Specific Technology RequirementsAcquiring technology is easy with GSA. You can use our Governmentwide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs), Information Technology (IT) Category on GSA Schedule, and the Network Services Program (NSP) contracts to gain fast access to cutting-edge IT, telecommunications, and infrastructure products, services and integrated solutions.Our comprehensive set of pre-competed and customizable acquisition solutions supports your technology life cycle needs – from management to execution – at competitive prices.IT, telecommunications, and infrastructure are integral to agency mission requirements across all aspects of government. Agencies also face constantly shifting priorities – ranging from cloud computing and infrastructure consolidation to cybersecurity and environmental sustainability. With tight budgets and a smaller workforce, finding the right solution to meet your IT needs as well as your telecommunications and infrastructure needs can be a significant burden.At GSA, we enable smart decisions when evaluating, purchasing, and implementing technology – from navigating available commercial offerings to determining the most appropriate acquisition vehicle. Working with leading industry partners and your in-house contracting professionals, we maximize operational effectiveness and efficiency while minimizing acquisition risks.

Meet Your Technology NeedsWith GSA, you have access to virtually anything technology-related to meet your mission requirements – such as infrastructure and applications, mobile management solutions, professional IT services, and communications services.

Follow Mandates and PoliciesWhenever your agency needs support addressing our nation’s priorities, GSA stands ready to work with you across a broad spectrum of IT initiatives while ensuring your compliance with federal mandates and policies. These initiatives include protection against cyber threats, progress toward environmental sustainability, evolution to a more mobile workforce, support of small and veteran-owned businesses, and migration of your computing systems to the cloud.
