The early days of the Trump Administration have caused nothing less than a complete shake-up of the federal procurement system, with impacts on federal contractors, subcontractors, and recipients of federal financial assistance, such as grants and loans. Through a series of Executive Orders and Agency Memoranda issued by the heads of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), General Services Administration (GSA), Department of State, and others, the government is suspending work and, in some cases, terminating federal awards. For example, GSA issued a complete “Acquisition Pause,” the State Department issued a pause on U.S. foreign assistance funded by or through the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and is actively terminating contracts and grants, and other agencies, including Department of Energy, Veterans’ Affairs, Department of Housing and Urban Development, and National Institute of Health are issuing stop-work orders and/or termination of contracts and grants, in whole or in part.
