The U.S. General Services Administration has entered into an agreement with Salesforce to reduce the price of Slack for federal agencies.
OneGov Initiative Meant to Empower Federal Agencies
GSA said Monday that the OneGov agreement enables the federal government to purchase Slack Enterprise Grid at a temporary 90 percent discount. In addition, each agency will be offered a 70 percent deduction for each user on Slack AI for Enterprise. The offer will be available until Nov. 30.
The OneGov agreement provides agencies with the tools to enhance productivity. It is designed to optimize IT procurement by setting prices based on total government purchasing volume. This unified model replaces fragmented discounts previously offered through individual agency deals. Furthermore, the agreement maximizes savings and reduces redundancy through consistent pricing and terms.
“GSA welcomes Salesforce’s commitment to work with the federal government as one customer,” said Josh Gruenbaum, GSA federal acquisition service commissioner and 2025 Wash100 Award winner. “These deals are a harbinger for the next phase, which is already underway, of longer term commitments from industry at discounted pricing in the new fiscal year and beyond,” continued Gruenbaum.
“Slack will help transform government operations by providing a secure, FedRAMP-authorized work operating system that accelerates decision-making and unifies agencies,” said Dave Rey, president of public sector at Salesforce. “Paired with Salesforce’s robust ecosystem, data processes and AI agents, Slack enables government agencies to enhance productivity and deliver citizen-focused outcomes with precision and speed,” he added.
