The pilot involves about 50 suppliers and is set to last a couple of months.<\/li>\n<li>Success will be determined in part by how many agencies purchase AI tools directly from the new marketplace, aiming to reinforce this practice for future AI-centered procurement efforts.<\/li>\n<li>The initiative underscores a broad effort with government technology to modernize how the public sector accesses technology and to create a more intuitive and efficient pathway for agencies to engage with AI solutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Glass, Sourcewell Launch AI Procurement Marketplace Pilot https:\/\/www.govtech.com\/biz\/glass-sourcewell-launch-ai-procurement-marketplace-pilot Publish Date: 2026-05-20 16:50:00 Source Domain: www.govtech.com&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":217533,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/erepublic.brightspotcdn.com\/dims4\/default\/23aac59\/2147483647\/strip\/true\/crop\/933x454+0+84\/resize\/1440x700!\/quality\/90\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ferepublic-brightspot.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com%2Fb4%2Fd0%2F723eab7c0a91da36e7ee57515cec%2Fcomputer-purchasing-procurement.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-217532","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217532"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217532"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217532\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":217534,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217532\/revisions\/217534"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/217533"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/testing.news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
