Market research is already underway for the GWAC's replacement Alliant 3.

He takes over the role from current acting CIO Andrea Simpson.

The agency on Thursday said it would push ahead with the procurement process for the IT services vehicle.

A draft request for proposals for Alliant 3 is also expected in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The latest award cohort takes the total number of federal contractors on the solicitation to 1,108.

The success of the $50 billion Alliant 2 has the agency considering increasing the ceiling.

The agencies on Monday signed a memorandum of understanding, their second collaboration to date.

Sustainability requirements are being added to existing and forthcoming contracts including Ascend and Alliant 3.

The contract covers application administration, enterprise and cloud computing, cybersecurity and information assurance.

The contract was the first of GSA's to include supply chain risk management requirements for its 79 awardees, including 58 small businesses.
