According to INPUT's analysis of the new fiscal year 2007 federal procurement spending data, federal spending on task order contract vehicles, such as GSA-managed governmentwide acquisition contracts (GWACs) and agency-managed task order vehicles, such as SeaPort and ITES, increased by 39% over 2006.

As expected, the majority of the increase came from non-GSA vehicles. In particular, the Army's CR2 contracts and the Navy's Seaport contracts received nearly $1 billion and $1.6 billion in increased annual spending respectively from 2006 to 2007.

All told, over $6 billion was added to task order vehicle spending in 2007 representing nearly 10% of the federal technology budget.
