U.S. Government Approves OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic as AI Vendors for Federal Agencies

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) has officially added OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic to its Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), allowing civilian federal agencies to procure AI services from these companies under pre-negotiated contracts. The decision streamlines federal access to leading AI tools while ensuring compliance with performance and security standards.

This move follows a series of executive orders from President Donald Trump aimed at accelerating AI adoption across government, including easing environmental restrictions to support data center expansion and mandating that AI systems used by federal agencies remain free from ideological bias. The inclusion of these major AI providers marks a significant step in the U.S. government’s broader strategy to modernize its digital infrastructure with trusted AI solutions.
