Eliminating Waste and Saving Taxpayer Dollars by Consolidating Procurement

AI Summary: This is a policy document, specifically an Executive Order about consolidating federal procurement processes. This regulation requires federal agencies to consolidate their procurement of common goods and services under the General Services Administration (GSA) to reduce waste and improve efficiency. The order mandates that within 60 days, agency heads must submit proposals to have GSA conduct domestic procurement for common goods and services. Within 90 days, the GSA Administrator must submit a comprehensive procurement plan to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). The order also designates the GSA Administrator as the executive agent for government-wide information technology acquisition contracts, with the authority to rationalize and eliminate contract duplication. The order defines key terms like "common goods and services" and "indefinite delivery contract vehicle" and provides guidelines for implementation, while explicitly stating that it does not create enforceable legal rights and must be implemented consistent with existing laws and available appropriations.
