Great to see @USGSA Acting Administrator @USGSAStephenE kicking off the Federal mDL Day - and touting the impact mDLs can have on improving ID proofing for government services and banking…and highlighting GSA’s participation in the @NIST mDL project at the NCCoE!

Selling six prime properties in the heart of D.C. will generate more than $400 million and save taxpayers $2.9 billion in overdue maintenance. I’m putting them up FOR SALE!

We are working hard to overhaul the FAR. Cutting the red tape and streamlining the rules. Great work by @WHOMB @DeptofDefense @NASA and @USGSA
Through the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul, @USGSA has cut 50% of outdated text so far—eliminating burdens like prescriptive market research procedures, A-109 competition model & streamlining IT rules to speed acquisition & strengthen mission delivery. ow.ly/eTsV50WanmB

More unused phone lines! @USGSA saved ~$800k/year by eliminating ~1,700 unused plans, switching plans for many of the remaining ones, and eliminating 2,218 unused cellular equipment payments. @SBA reduced its VOIP licenses from 9,195 to 2,690, eliminating 6,505…
Unused phone lines! Of the 1048 @USOPM phone lines, 198 (19%) were either unused or duplicated. OPM cancelled these lines (took 1 hour), resulting in ~$100k/yr in savings. Since OPM is ~0.1% of the federal government, this suggests that ~$100M/yr is wasted on unused lines.
Deregulation update: for the first time in 40+ years, the FAR is being modernized & @USGSA is leading the way––cutting outdated rules, accelerating procurement of commercial products, & reducing administrative burden and costs for businesses. We are making it easier and faster…
Website project! The federal government has over 6,500 public-facing websites, many of which are obsolete or unused. For ~10%, there were fewer than 10 views in the past month. Each website costs the taxpayer between $100k and $6M per year. An initial audit suggests ~20% can…
