What Does the OneGov Agreement Provide to Federal Agencies?
Under the agreement, agencies can obtain discounts of up to 64 percent on select software offerings from Broadcom’s VMware portfolio when purchasing through the Multiple Award Schedule, GSA said Wednesday. The deal remains effective through May 2027.
Which VMware Products Are Included in the OneGov Agreement?
The offering covers a set of VMware platforms focused on application development, data intelligence and network security. Included products are VMware Tanzu Platform, VMware Tanzu Data Intelligence, VMware Avi Load Balancer and VMware vDefend, which incorporates distributed firewall and advanced threat prevention capabilities. Agencies may also opt to purchase the VMware Tanzu AI Starter Kit, which could enable accelerated artificial intelligence prototyping and deployment by combining Tanzu tools with professional services.
Josh Gruenbaum, commissioner of the GSA Federal Acquisition Service, said the agreement represents another milestone under the OneGov initiative.
“By partnering directly with Broadcom, we’re expanding access to commercial-grade AI and cybersecurity capabilities — while reducing cost and complexity for agencies,” the 2025 Wash100 Award recipient continued, adding that the deal “advances President Trump’s call to accelerate AI adoption across government.”
How Does the Agreement Fit Into Broader Federal Acquisition Goals?
According to GSA, the Broadcom agreement supports the objectives of the OneGov Strategy, including unified buying and standardized acquisition approaches across agencies. The agency also said the deal aligns with Executive Order 14240, which calls for improved efficiency in federal procurement practices.
