Partnership Provides the Public Sector with Access to the Independent Talent e-Commerce Marketplace

RESTON, Va. — August 13, 2019 — GovFlex, the e-Commerce marketplace 100 percent dedicated to connecting government agencies and contractors with the best independent talent, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider^®, today announced a partnership to help Federal, state and local agencies accelerate access to independent experts and consultants.

“By partnering with Carahsoft, GovFlex is looking forward to helping public sector agencies create an agile and highly effective 21st Century workforce by leveraging e-Commerce initiatives and adopting leading commercial solutions,” said Eric Adolphe, CEO at GovFlex. “We started by providing services to government contractors and independent 1099 experts but are now bringing the first streamlined gig economy digital e-Procurement platform to government agencies as well.”

Carahsoft and GovFlex’s partnership makes the GovFlex proven software-as-a-solution platform available to help federal, state and local agencies accelerate finding and accessing a wide range of technical, program management and other skill sets, including hard-to-find talent for leading edge solutions.
