• Government Acquisition Contract (GWAC) is a contract under which several government agencies purchase products or services together in order to pay for lower costs.

  • GWACs are commonly used to acquire new technologies and are used primarily for information technology solutions.
  • GWACs are available through the US General Services Administration (GSA), the National Aerospace Association (NASA), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
  • In recent years, the popularity of GWAC has grown compared to contracts with a single agency.
