GAO in the Know: The Who, What, Why, and How of Federal Contracting

Wednesday, July 30 • 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM ET • Agency Connection Center in the Longworth House Office Building 

In Fiscal Year 2024, the federal government committed about $755 billion on contracts. Who are the people that support government contracting (the acquisition workforce)?  What do federal agencies buy through these contracts (goods and services)? Why do agencies buy goods and services in particular ways (e.g. through Category Management and Other Transaction Agreements)? How might ongoing changes to federal contracting affect agency operations? Join GAO contracting experts to answer these questions and more.
