The General Service Administration (GSA) is preparing to release a second amendment to the OASIS+ (One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services – Plus) professional services vehicle by next week (August 14). GSA will also issue their first batch of responses to the 4,500+ questions they received about the Governmentwide Acquisition Contract (GWAC).
