GSA announced its “OneGov Strategy” for modernizing procurement in the federal government in April 2025, making it one year since it was initially launched. OneGov is intended to align with Executive Order 14240 Eliminating Waste and Saving Taxpayer Dollars by Consolidating Procurement and EO 14271 Ensuring Commercial, Cost-Effective Solutions in Federal Contracts that came out early 2025 and direct how the government should be organizing procurement and cost-saving efforts.

In the ever‑evolving world of federal procurement, one constant remains at the heart of every solicitation, award, and contract action: the Procurement Instrument Identifier (PIID). Whether you’re responding to solicitations, managing active contracts, or navigating GSA Schedule requirements, understanding PIIDs is more essential than ever. Let’s walk through what PIIDs are, how they work, and why they continue to matter in 2026.

In early April, the Army released the long-awaited Marketplace for the Acquisition of Professional Services (MAPS) solicitation. This solicitation has been in the works for years and has gone through several iterations before reaching its final form. Shortly before the solicitation was released, the Army published several changes to the draft solicitation, which are critical for prospective contractors to understand. In this blog, we’ll cover what the MAPS Solicitation is, what the recent changes were, and what’s happening with the solicitation now.

OASIS+ has been gaining traction ever since it first debuted in 2024. The federal contract vehicle is used by government agencies to procure non-IT professional services such as management and advisory, technical and engineering, and logistics. It’s designed to make it easier for agencies to access qualified contractors for complex professional services. Because it's used across many agencies, and is set to expand under Phase II, it’s quickly becoming a popular vehicle and great opportunity for contractors. Now that we have some data on OASIS+ through the Sales Schedule Query Plus (SSQ+) dashboard, we want to dive into which agencies are using the vehicle, what they’re procuring, and how much money is flowing through it.

Even though our budget for 2026 is still being debated, it’s that time again for the annual budget request. The Trump Administration released the FY2027 budget request in early April, giving us a look into what next year’s spending could look like. As a reminder, the federal government Fiscal Year ends September 30, so FY 2027 will start on October 1, 2026.
