The General Services Administration has added three artificial intelligence products to its Multiple Award Schedule in line with the Trump administration’s commitment to advancing the U.S. global leadership in AI.
The products made available to federal, state and local government buyers through MAS, which offers volume discount pricing, are Anthropic’s Claude, Google’s Gemini and OpenAI’s ChatGPT, GSA said Tuesday.
According to GSA Acting Administrator Michael Rigas, providing federal agencies with easy access to cutting-edge AI solutions from the private sector will help transform government operations, including back-office processes and the delivery of mission-critical services, while enhancing employee and citizen experiences.
Responsible AI Adoption
The action, which aligns with America’s AI Action Plan and the administration’s priority to accelerate the availability of AI tools across government, is expected to boost the federal government’s effort to responsibly adopt and scale transformative AI technologies to improve daily workflows and processes.
“GSA is proud to leverage our procurement expertise to advance the President’s AI Action Plan. Through GSA’s marketplace, agencies will be able to explore a wide range of AI solutions, from simple research assistants powered by large language models to highly tailored, mission-specific applications,” said Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum, a 2025 Wash100 Award recipient.
“As we procure these products, we’re focused on models that prioritize truthfulness, accuracy, transparency, and freedom from ideological bias, aligning with the Trump Administration’s policy that federally procured AI systems must prioritize truth and accuracy over ideological agendas,” he continued.
The agency is inviting all approved AI providers committed to responsible use and compliance with federal standards to join the GSA Schedule.
