Gordon Bitko, a seasoned executive with over 25 years of experience in technology development and management, has been selected by the U.S. General Services Administration to be part of its Acquisition Policy Federal Advisory Committee, or GAP FAC.
The Information Technology Industry Council said Thursday Bitko will join the council and advise GSA on procurement tools and authorities to address high-priority federal acquisition challenges.
Bitko will leverage his extensive experience serving in the ITI Council in his new role. The current ITI executive vice president of public sector is knowledgeable in the development and implementation of technology policies, strategic plans and technology roadmaps.

“Technology offers federal agencies pragmatic and impactful tools to better serve the American public and tackle longstanding acquisition challenges,” said Bitko. “I’m honored to serve on GSA’s Acquisition Policy Federal Advisory Committee and look forward to working with its diverse set of experts to help ensure that the U.S. government’s adoption of emerging technologies is reasonable, actionable, secure, and efficient now and into the future.”
