Getting Strategic With Gemini for Government

A junior soldier receives a voicemail from her commander, asking her to bring specific vehicles and other equipment to a certain location and ensure that the spacing and layout meet all applicable standards. The soldier is new and unfamiliar with the regulations, and in the past, she would have needed to hunt through policy documents, piece together compliance checklists and ultimately take a best guess at what her commander wanted.

But today, she can upload the voicemail to Gemini for Government and let the secure AI platform pull relevant regulations in minutes.

This example illustrates how Gemini for Government can help transform mundane workflows for federal workers.

Gemini for Government, which is available for a nominal fee until next September, securely ties into agency data stores to help agency employees move beyond tactics and spend more time on the strategic decisions they were hired to make.

Here are some of the things that Gemini for Government can handle for federal workers:

Streamline RFPs. Agency procurement processes often create bottlenecks that slow down the mission. A single project might receive hundreds of responses to a request for proposal, with each RFP potentially exceeding 100 pages and hundreds of answers for agency staff to assess and analyze. An employee might be 65 pages into an RFP response before he sees something disqualifying (or, if he’s already reviewed a dozen responses that day, he might miss it entirely).

By connecting Gemini for Government to document repositories, such as Google Drive and SharePoint, staff can securely use AI to get instant answers to simple questions like: “Which responses fail to meet our cybersecurity requirements?” Agents can then analyze the submissions, flag potential compliance issues and even provide links to specific passages that raise concerns. Evaluators still make the final calls on vendor selection, but they can spend their time making strategic judgments rather than manually cross-referencing hundreds of pages of RFP responses against selection criteria.

Accelerate reporting. A quarterly personnel readiness report for a cybersecurity command might consume more than a week of a senior leader’s time: one day for pulling data from multiple disconnected systems, two more days to clean up that data and at least several more for analysis and drafting. Even coordinating and scheduling review might eat up half of a leader’s day.

Instead, agencies can start using Gemini for Government to pull and analyze the data for them. Then, leaders can build strategic plans around this data and analysis. A weeklong process shrinks to a day or less, and leaders spend the remaining time focused on mission readiness rather than merely compiling numbers.

Navigate policy and compliance. Federal workers operate in a maze of policies, regulations, procurement requirements and contractual obligations. An agency employee preparing a grant application might need to cross-reference three sets of guidelines, verify compliance with a recent policy update and ensure the proposal doesn’t conflict with existing contractual commitments — before even starting to write. Tracking down the right documents can take hours, and there’s always the risk of missing a critical requirement buried in a 200-page statute.

Using Gemini for Government, employees can ask direct questions about specific topics like recent policy updates. The platform searches across connected document repositories to surface relevant policies, flag potential conflicts and point to specific sections that apply. Workers still need to read and interpret the requirements, but they will spend far less time hunting through documentation.

Agencies can access Gemini for Government through a GSA partnership that makes the platform available for 47 cents per agency through September 2026. The pricing is designed to lower barriers to AI adoption, letting agencies experiment without major budget commitments. Security is addressed through FedRAMP High certification, with encryption and access controls built in. Critically, agency data stays with the agency.

The platform connects to systems federal workers already use, and agencies can start with prebuilt agents for common tasks, such as research and ideation. Many organizations begin with focused, low-risk pilots to demonstrate value before expanding to more complex workflows. The goal is straightforward: Give federal employees the time and mental bandwidth to focus on mission-critical decisions that require human judgment, rather than tasks that don’t.
