Federal Contracting Shift: Why ‘Commercially Available’ Could Be the New Norm
In April 2025, President Trump signed an executive order requiring U.S. federal agencies to prioritize commercially available products and services over custom-built solutions wherever possible.
The policy aims to cut costs and speed up delivery by relying more on proven commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technology and hardware. For contractors, this means higher demand for integration skills, secure configuration, and the ability to blend COTS tech with agency- specific requirements.
