President Donald J. Trump has signed an Executive Order aimed at consolidating federal procurement for common goods and services under the General Services Administration (GSA). This move is intended to eliminate waste, inefficiencies, and duplication in government procurement processes.
The GSA is the agency tasked with conducting procurement, and this consolidation will allow other agencies to concentrate on their primary mission of providing excellent services to the American public.
President Trump emphasized the importance of a streamlined, centralized approach to procurement. He stated that such an approach is crucial for ensuring that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely and efficiently.
Since taking office, President Trump has focused on eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse within the federal government. This Executive Order is part of his ongoing efforts to address these issues.
