In one of the first initiatives of its kind in the industrialized world, the U.S. General Services Administration is poised to award contracts that would allow government users to make billions of dollars in purchases directly from “electronic marketplaces” online (potentially at sites such as Amazon.com and Walmart.com).

This “commercial platforms” initiative could radically reshape public procurement in goods and services, as government users will be able to make direct “micro-purchases” (typically up to US$10,000) directly from these commercial platforms.
