Alliant Small Business II GWAC

Alliant Small Business governmentwide acquisition contact (GWAC) exercised its final option in February of this year, extending the contract until February 2, 2019 and the GSA is already hard at work, figuring out the direction of Alliant II Small Business.

Alliant is considered to be GSA’s premier small business information technology GWAC and helps provide the government with the largest pool of customized, cutting-edge IT solutions. Alliant has allowed for long-term planning of large, high tech IT projects, all the while making sure that small businesses are reaping the benefits of the innovation that they are creating.

Alliant II is already being discussed in detail on GSA Interact (https://interact.gsa.gov/group/alliant-ii-alliant-ii-small-business-gwacs). Important discussions about Product Service Codes and Labor Categories are already in happening. The GSA allows possible contractors to comment and discuss how Alliant II can improve on the original, taking those ideas and incorporating them into the RFP. If you are interested in Alliant II, make sure you get on GSA Interact and voice your opinion!

There hasn’t been a date set for the release of a draft RFP or an actual RFP but the GSA wants the input of small business to make sure that this GWAC is doing exactly what’s it meant to do!
