Comments or direct messages are not able to be responded to via this platform.** In October 2020, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) created the Information Technology Vendor Management Office (ITVMO) to help solve the challenges agencies face when they buy commodity IT and leverage existing IT contract vehicles. The lack of a unified, governmentwide IT acquisitions approach means agencies experience different prices for the same products and services, redundant acquisition efforts, and different terms and conditions. The ITVMO advances the goals of Category Management (CM) to improve how the government buys common goods and services, including ensuring best pricing and eliminating duplicative contracts. The ITVMO is a partnership between the General Services Administration (GSA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the Department of Defense (DOD) to provide agencies with meaningful acquisition intelligence to inform and support faster, smart IT buying decisions. The ITVMO serves as a trusted independent advisor and advocate to help agencies buy common IT goods and services in compliance with procurement laws. As a one stop shop, the ITVMO will leverage governmentwide IT procurement data, conduct market research, and develop shared agency acquisition knowledge to support agencies in procurement decisions.
