Bringing Practical Solutions Back to Federal Procurement – What It Means for Your Business
On April 15, 2025, President Donald J. Trump signed Executive Order 14275, titled “Restoring Common Sense to Federal Procurement”. This groundbreaking directive is reshaping how businesses engage with the federal government, emphasizing clarity, efficiency, and economic opportunity.
At GovPointe, we champion the very principles this Executive Order promotes. Our mission has always been to make government contracting simpler, more accessible, and more rewarding for small to mid-sized businesses. This new policy shift reinforces what we do best—guiding companies toward federal contracting success through streamlined, smart strategies.
What the Executive Order Changes
Executive Order 14275 directs the FAR Council to revise the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) with a strong focus on simplification. Going forward, the FAR will only retain provisions that are:
- Required by statute
- Critical to sound procurement policy
- Necessary to protect national and economic security
This effort supports a broader deregulation initiative, as established by Executive Order 14192, “Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation”. It’s a significant move to cut red tape, promote innovation, and reinvigorate American entrepreneurship through federal spending power.
Why It Matters for Your Business
For companies already in or exploring the federal marketplace, the simplified FAR brings key benefits:
- Lower Barriers to Entry: With fewer overly complex clauses, small businesses can better compete without needing costly legal interpretation.
- Faster Procurement Timelines: Streamlined processes allow for quicker decision-making and contract awards.
- Wider Market Access: Simplification encourages new entrants into federal contracting, increasing innovation and diversity across the vendor landscape.
