The General Services Administration is celebrating its 65th birthday by highlighting how much government work has changed over the decades.
Ori Hoffer, social media strategist at GSA, said in a blog post that employees used to use manual typewriters and process contract bids by hand, but now use a wide array of technology to help shorten and simplify the process.
The agency also has evolved from testing natural gas as a vehicle fuel to using electric and hybrid cars in its rental fleet.
“While the people and the technology have changed, and the mission statement may be a bit different, the goal is still the same – streamline the administrative work of the federal government,” Hoffer said.
