Title: General Services Administration Regulation (GSAR); GSAR Case 2015-G508, Removal of Unnecessary Construction Clauses and Editorial Changes 
Abstract:

The General Services Administration (GSA) is amending the General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) to revise GSAR part 536, Construction and Architect-Engineer Contracts, and corresponding provisions and clauses in GSAR part 552, Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses, to remove unnecessary construction clauses. These provisions and clauses are now covered in the FAR or are otherwise no longer necessary for the agency. Removing these clauses simplifies contract terms and conditions, reduces regulatory burden to contractors, and eliminates any conflict with language contained in construction contract technical specifications.
