GovConJudicata Weekly Debrief (8/26–30)
Welcome to the first installment of the GovConJudicata Weekly Debrief!
In each Weekly Debrief, we will provide a snapshot into some of the week's news in and around the government contracting space.
GSA
GSA Interact – GSA on track to release consolidated schedules on October 1.
"On October 1, 2019, GSA will publish the new, consolidated, solicitation on FedBizOpps along with applicable attachments."
Defense

FederalTimes – Pentagon awards $7.6 billion DEOS contract to CSRA.
"DEOS was awarded to CSRA, an IT solutions and services company, and its contractors Dell and Minburn Technology. The solutions will be built on the Microsoft Office 365 platform. CSRA was acquired by General Dynamics in 2018."
"The USSPACECOM mission is to deter aggression and conflict, defend U.S. and allied freedom of action, deliver space combat power for the Joint/Combined force, and develop joint warfighters to advance U.S. and allied interests in, from, and through the space domain."
