Some contracting executives believe that recent budget deals in Congress could provide investment certainty to federal agencies and contractors in the near term, the Washington Post reported Monday.

“My expectation is that we’ll see a lot more money being put to projects and programs over the next couple of quarters,” said Brad Antle, CEO of Salient Federal Solutions, told the Post.

“It is impossible for us — or anyone — to take away market share if the [requests for proposals] don’t come out,” Engility CEO Tony Smeraglinolo, added, according to the article.

Marjorie Censer writes that some contracting advocates are also optimistic that agencies will move forward on acquisition proposals.

“Agencies still have to be very careful how they spend their dollars, but knowing how much they have … is a significant improvement over where we were,” Stan Soloway, president and CEO of the Professional Services Council, told the newspaper.
