OPM taps Oracle to lead government-wide HR IT overhaul
OPM awarded a nearly $400 million, 10-year contract to Oracle to build a cloud-based, government-wide HR platform intended to consolidate 119 disparate federal HR systems, standardize data, and streamline payroll, benefits and employee services across agencies, with phased deployment starting for initial agencies and a launch timeline likely pushed from 2027; the award follows earlier bid protests and is part of the Federal HR 2.0 modernization push.
