Greg Gershman, Ad Hoc co-founder, CEO and board chair, commented on the news:
“Today, we’re taking another step toward expanding what we can offer the federal government so that we can have an even larger impact on how the government builds and operates digital services. With these new capabilities and new contracts at financial and regulatory agencies, the General Services Administration, and the Department of Labor, we’re excited about how we can expand the type of support we provide to our customers.
