Title: General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR); GSAR Case 2008-G509, Rewrite GSAR 536, Construction and Architect-Engineer Contracts 
Abstract: The General Services Administration (GSA) is amending the General Services Administration Regulation (GSAR) to update the text addressing GSAR part 536, Construction and Architect-Engineer Contracts. This rule is a result of the GSA Acquisition Manual (GSAM) rewrite initiative undertaken by GSA to update internal policy and procedures pertaining to Construction and Architect-Engineer Contracts. The rewrite will include a review of solicitation provisions and contract clauses; address Construction Management as Contractor and Art-in-Architecture contracts; and will review selection panel processes for A/E contracting. The GSAM incorporates the GSAR as well as internal agency acquisition policy. This case is included in GSA's retrospective review of existing regulations under Executive Order 13563. Additional information is located in GSA's retrospective review dated May 14, 2012, available at: www.gsa.gov/improvingregulations.
