This Interact group is designed to support the market research and phased implementation of procurement through Commercial E-Commerce Portals (commonly referred to as Commercial Platforms).
GSA has heard from customers and vendors alike that we need to improve how we source, manage and ultimately sell commercial products through our e-platforms. This Commercial Platforms community exists to allow for open information sharing around our e-commerce modernization efforts (to include Section 846 of the National Defense Authorization Act, which directs OMB and the Administrator of the GSA to establish a program to procure commercial products through commercial e-commerce portals). We will be utilizing this community as we conduct market research to solicit feedback, share important milestones, and provide details on upcoming events. Our goal is to be as open and transparent throughout this initiative, sharing our progress along the way and soliciting your input at key milestones.
