Federal Procurement

The U.S. federal government is set to adopt Microsoft Copilot, a move facilitated by a new agreement with Microsoft and the GSA. Millions of government workers using the G5 license will gain free access to Copilot for a year. This aims to modernize operations, empower employees with AI tools, and potentially save taxpayers $3.1 billion in the first year. Microsoft is investing $20 million in training and support. Security is a priority, with FedRAMP High authorization pursued and existing tools bolstering “zero trust” frameworks.
