Some users have taken issue with the two-factor authentication required to access the new federal awards system.

The award system is being retired with nine others over time as the General Services Administration streamlines acquisitions through a single beta system.

The agency has released the newly consolidated schedule on FedBizOpps.

The Multiple Award Schedules Consolidation is intended to modernize acquisition for federal, state and local governments.

Nine other legacy systems will be consolidated within the streamlined beta.SAM.gov.

If the notice yields "suitable responses," SAA says they'll post a solicitation in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2019.
