GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service has released two request-for-proposals for a new acquisition program designed to complement the Multiple Award Schedules program.
The RFPs bring the agency closer to launching One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services, or OASIS, GSA said, adding that the solution covers both commercial and noncommercial needs and is designed to reduce the duplication of contracting efforts while providing comprehensive, integrated professional services contract options.
"As a result of the tremendous amount of input we received, we believe OASIS will fill the substantial need for a hybrid, government-wide acquisition vehicle that has great potential to reduce the number of full-and-open procurements across government and drive extraneous costs out of the acquisition process," said FAS commissioner Tom Sharpe.
