#AI is Reshaping Federal Procurement - and OneZero is Leaning Forward ✍ Our Senior Proposal Manager, Colleen Young, attended the recent American Council for Technology - Industry Advisory Council (ACT-IAC) AI Acquisition Forum, to discuss the present reality in how government agencies leverage AI to solicit, evaluate, and award contracts. With new OMB guidance (M-25-21 & M-25-22), agencies are increasingly using AI to draft RFPs and evaluate responses. This shift is already changing how industry engages with less emphasis on written narratives and more on oral presentations and real-time interaction. At OneZero, we're embracing this evolution: 🔷 Quality & Accuracy: We deploy precision testing to ensure AI-generated content meets federal standards. 🔷 Risk Management: Our cybersecurity and RMF expertise shapes our AI governance approach, ensuring transparency and accountability. 🔷 Responsible Expansion: Starting small, proving value, scaling wisely. Our phased approach validates performance before expanding use. 🔷 Empowering Our People: True transformation happens when technology amplifies human capability. We're making AI tools approachable and creating low-risk spaces for innovation. As government moves toward AI-driven procurement, OneZero is ready! How is AI changing your approach to federal contracting?
