GWAC
Government-Wide Acquisition Contract
A Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) is a pre-competed, multiple-award IDIQ vehicle for information-technology products and services that agencies across the government can order from. It saves each agency from running its own IT procurement from scratch.
What it is
A GWAC is an IDIQ established by one agency (such as GSA or NASA) and made available government-wide for IT solutions. Holders were vetted at award; ordering agencies place task orders, often competed among the vehicle's holders.
Why it exists
It concentrates the up-front competition and vetting into one vehicle so any agency can buy IT quickly and compliantly.
Who it applies to
IT contractors — holding a seat on a GWAC is a gateway to federal IT task orders across many agencies.
