Tiffany Hixon: GSA seeks to consolidate expiring services contracts

The General Services Administration's new push to consolidate services contracts comes about because of another governmentwide contracting initiative. Federal News Radio reports GSA will try to consolidate many expiring services contracts into a few multiple-award contracts. Tiffany Hixson is commissioner for Region 10 in GSA's Federal Acquisition Service and she oversees all of GSA's governmentwide professional support service schedule contracts like the Mission Oriented Business Integrated Services contract known as MOBIS. She told In Depth with Francis Rose the effort to remake the services contracts started within GSA and another big contracting initiative is driving it.
