We're Looking for
Stories
Federal procurement reform is one of the most outstanding
success stories of reinventing government. No longer mired down
by red tape and senseless restrictions, government is moving toward
buying computer products and systems like they do in the private
sector. By buying a little, testing a little, and fixing a little,
agencies get timely delivery of continually improved products at
considerable savings.
Access America E-Gov E-Zine is looking for stories that tell
how federal agencies, or multi-agency partnerships, are bringing
about this reform, and what it means to agencies that buy and workers
who use the systems.
These stories can be short, as in a "byte" of about 150 words,
or they can be longer feature stories. Write feature stories in
plain language with quotes from procurement officials, vendors,
program administrators, and federal workers who use the products
to get their jobs done.
Include a contact person with phone number and email address.
Send your stories to pat.wood@npr.gov
or pat.smith@gsa.gov. If
you need more information, call Pat Wood, National Partnership for
Reinventing Government, (202) 694-0063. Please pass this request
along to others who may be interested.
