Overview

  • The General Services Administration finalized a $1 billion AWS credit agreement under OneGov, allowing federal agencies to draw on credits for cloud services, modernization support, migration assistance and training through December 31, 2028.
  • Agencies can apply the incentive credits to shift from aging on-premises infrastructure to AWS cloud platforms, modernize applications and train personnel in advanced technologies.
  • This AWS pact follows earlier OneGov contracts with Oracle for deeply discounted tech and with OpenAI to provide ChatGPT Enterprise access for all federal workers.
  • Acting GSA Administrator Michael Rigas said the credits will boost service delivery, drive AI adoption and reduce overall IT costs across government agencies.
  • AWS CEO Matt Garman added that the agreement positions AWS to help agencies achieve immediate operational efficiencies and build a more secure, innovative federal infrastructure.
