Information Technology Liaison Office Programs - Federal Procurement Data System - Next Generation
Federal Procurement Data System- Next Generation (FPDS-NG) is the System tasked to collect data required by FAR 4.6 and one initiative of the Integrated Acquisition Environment (IAE).
FPDS data provides a basis for recurring and special reports to the President, the Congress, the General Accounting Office, Federal executive agencies, and the general public.
FPDS data is a means of measuring and assessing the impact of Federal contracting on the Nation's economy and the extent to which small businesses, (veteran-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, HUBZone, disadvantaged, and women-owned ) are sharing in Federal contracts as well as Information for other policy and management control purposes, and for public access.
VA Contracting professionals enter acquisition data on line at https://www.fpds.gov to FPDS-NG in compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 4.6.
As a part of the Presidents Management Agenda, The Integrated Acquisition Environment (IAE) initiative creates a secure business environment that facilitates and supports cost-effective acquisition of goods and services by federal agencies, while eliminating inefficiencies in the current acquisition environment.
