GWAC
Government-Wide Acquisition Contract
Definition
A Government-Wide Acquisition Contract is a task-order or delivery-order contract for IT products and services established by one agency for use by all federal agencies. GWACs provide pre-competed contract vehicles that agencies can use to quickly acquire IT solutions.
Major GWACs include SEWP (NASA), Alliant (GSA), and CIO-SP (NIH). Winning a GWAC position provides access to billions in potential task orders but requires competing again at the task order level. GWACs streamline procurement but demand ongoing investment in capture and proposal activities to win actual work.
