3090-AK22 202304 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 3090 General Services Administration GSA General Service Acquisition Regulation (GSAR); GSAR Case 2020-G512, System for Award Management Representation for Leases

The General Services Administration (GSA) is proposing to amend the General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) to remove the requirement for lease offerors to have an active System for Award Management (SAM) registration when submitting offers and instead allow offers up until the time of award to obtain an active SAM registration. Entities seeking Federal leases differ from the typical entities seeking Federal contracts in that common practice is to form a new entity for every new lease offer. Requiring representations from these entities prior to offer submission restricts competition. In addition, the tools in SAM typically used in the Government’s evaluation of offers do not add value when evaluating lease offers.
