"If given the opportunity to serve and lead GSA, I will focus the agency on four central priorities: right-sizing our federal real estate portfolio, unifying our federal acquisition system, encouraging and promoting more small businesses to do business with the federal government, and leading the way for a technology transformation across federal agencies,"
"multiplier for efficiency and modernization"
"must operate as a unified enterprise, not as a patchwork of"
Edward Forst was nominated by President Trump to lead the General Services Administration and pledged to focus GSA on four priorities if confirmed. He emphasized right-sizing the federal real estate portfolio, unifying the federal acquisition system, increasing small business participation, and driving a technology transformation across agencies. Forst described GSA as a "multiplier for efficiency and modernization." Forst previously chaired Lion Capital, worked at Goldman Sachs, and briefly served as a Treasury senior advisor in 2008. GSA's mission has expanded far beyond office space and supply contracts to include acquisition, real estate, transportation, and information technology. The agency now oversees centralized procurement actions and is rewriting Federal Acquisition Regulation rules.
