    Jeff Koses, GSA

    Jeff Koses

    Senior Procurement Executive, General Services Administration

    Jeff Koses oversees GSA’s acquisition system as the agency’s senior procurement executive and deputy chief acquisition officer. His responsibilities include implementing acquisition policy, maintaining regulatory compliance, guiding acquisition planning and supporting the federal acquisition workforce.

    Koses is also a voting member of the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council and oversees the Federal Acquisition Institute, which serves approximately 180,000 acquisition professionals across civilian federal agencies. He has spent nearly four decades at GSA, including more than 12 years in his current position.

    Before becoming senior procurement executive, Koses led GSA’s Office of Acquisition Operations for more than 26 years. In that position, he managed a 380-person organization responsible for Multiple Award Schedule programs generating more than $22 billion in annual business volume.

    Why Watch

    In 2026, Koses is helping lead the implementation of the Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation Overhaul, a governmentwide effort to simplify federal purchasing rules, remove unnecessary requirements and improve acquisition outcomes. The initiative has moved into workforce training, rulemaking and institutionalization following the issuance of 49 deviations during its earlier phase.

    Koses is focused on preparing contracting professionals and industry partners for the resulting policy changes. This work includes updating acquisition guidance, expanding training through the Federal Acquisition Institute and revising GSA’s acquisition regulations to align with the broader overhaul.

    His influence extends beyond GSA through his roles on the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council and the U.S. AbilityOne Commission. His work with AbilityOne supports federal contracting opportunities that employ tens of thousands of people who are blind or have significant disabilities.
