Larry Allen, appointed as the GSA's associate administrator for governmentwide policy and chief acquisition officer, aims to reform federal procurement. With decades of experience and leadership under a new administration, he perceives a chance for significant improvements in government acquisition. His return to government service is driven by a commitment to streamline acquisition processes, including initiatives like GSA's OneGov Strategy, which simplifies software procurement and has already secured substantial discounts from major companies like Google and Adobe, presenting the government as a unified customer.
What brought me back into government service was the ability to work on federal acquisition reform. I really think that we now have a unique opportunity to streamline acquisition.
Seldom do you get a chance to work on acquisition reform twice in one career, and so I really feel like I have a unique opportunity to make an impact here.
