Bill overview
The Value Over Cost Act of 2025 aims to change how the federal government purchases goods and services through its Multiple Award Schedule program. It requires federal agencies to prioritize the ‘best value’ when awarding contracts, not just the lowest price. This means agencies can select a vendor that offers a better overall solution, considering factors beyond just cost, if it aligns with their needs and promotes government interests. The bill updates regulations to ensure this ‘best value’ approach is consistently applied.
