Edward Forst has been nominated to lead the General Services Administration, following a leadership shakeup at the agency. Forst is currently the chairman of Lion Capital and has extensive experience in commercial real estate and finance, having worked at Cushman & Wakefield and Goldman Sachs. The GSA is critical for government technology, real estate, and procurement. Michael Rigas has been appointed as acting head of the agency, which is seen as part of a shift away from previous efficiency efforts.
"We welcome President Trump's nomination of Ed Forst to serve as Administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration," Rigas, GSA's acting administrator, told Nextgov/FCW in a statement. "We look forward to the confirmation process as we develop a collaborative vision for GSA that enhances our service to the federal government and the American people."
The General Services Administration (GSA) is a central nerve center for government technology, real estate, and procurement, and has recently undergone leadership changes.
