BUYSMARTER

BUYSMARTER is a transformative, data-driven initiative leveraging the collective purchasing power of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to secure lower prices, achieve operational efficiencies, and generate cost savings on goods and services.

BUYSMARTER uses Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) technology to analyze department requirements based on current HHS-wide spend data. This helps identify opportunities to consolidate contract vehicles across agencies within HHS to leverage overlapping requirements at significant cost savings for the federal government.
