BGOV Outlook for Federal Agency Program Management and Acquisition

Federal agencies are managing complex programs with evolving missions and growing customer expectations. Improving outcomes and efficiency, while reducing overspending and waste, are essential priorities for policymakers, agency staff, contractors, and taxpayers.

Program management and acquisition reform remain key drivers of federal performance, but implementation remains a work in progress. Additional reforms and initiatives from the White House and Congress will influence the future of program management and acquisition.

We’ll assess the status of federal program management and acquisition reform, and emerging initiatives and strategies.
