]]> 36 2005-05-23 Passed House amended 2005-06-27T19:22:21Z General Services Administration Modernization Act - (Sec. 2) Establishes a Federal Acquisition Service in the General Services Administration (GSA). Requires the appointment of a Commissioner of the Federal Acquisition Service.

Directs the Commissioner, subject to the direction and control of the Administrator of GSA, to be responsible for carrying out functions related to the uses for which the Acquisition Services Fund created by this Act is authorized, including any functions that were carried out by the Federal Supply Service and the Federal Technology Service and such other related functions as the Administrator considers appropriate.

Authorizes the appointment of up to five Regional Executives in the Federal Acquisition Service.

(Sec. 3) Abolishes the General Supply Fund and the Information Technology Fund in the Treasury. Transfers remaining capital assets and balances in such Funds to the Acquisition Services Fund to be merged with and be available for the purposes of such Fund.

Requires the Acquisition Services Fund to be credited with all reimbursements, advances, and refunds or recoveries relating to personal property or services procured through the Fund, including: (1) the net proceeds of disposal of surplus personal property; and (2) receipts from carriers and others for loss of, or damage to, personal property; and (3) receipts from agencies charged fees pursuant to rates established by the Administrator. Requires the Administrator to determine cost and capital requirements of the Fund and develop a plan concerning such requirements in consultation with the Chief Financial Officer of GSA. Requires any change to the cost and capital requirements to be approved by the Administrator. Requires the Administrator, according to such plan, to establish rates to be charged agencies provided, or to be provided, supply of personal property and non-personal services through the Fund.

Allows fees collected for recovering the costs of testing materials tendered for sale or lease to GSA or any procurement authority acting under GSA to be deposited in the Fund.

Provides for: (1) the use of the Fund for personal services related to the provision of information technology; and (2) the Administrator to fix prices at levels sufficient to recover the cost of personal services employed directly in providing information technology.

Sets requirements for the transfer of uncommitted balances in the Fund.

(Sec. 4) Amends the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act to direct the head of each executive agency, after consultation with the Administrator and the Director of the Office of Personal Management, to establish policies and procedures, under which the agency head may reemploy in an acquisition-related position an individual receiving an annuity from the Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund, based on such individual's service, without discontinuing such annuity. Instructs each agency head to keep the Administrator informed of the agency's use of this authority.

Prohibits considering an individual so reemployed to be a Federal employee for the purposes of the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) or the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS).

Requires the policies and procedures established pursuant to the authority specified above to authorize the agency head, on a case-by-case basis, to continue an annuity if either the unusually high or unique qualifications of an individual receiving such an annuity or a special need of the agency for the services of an employee makes the reemployment of an individual essential.

Requires the Administrator to submit annual reports to specified congressional committees on the use of such authority, including the number of employees reemployed under such authority.

Terminates such authority on December 31, 2011.

Directs each executive agency head, after consultation with the Administrator, to establish policies and procedures under which the agency head may pay retention bonuses to employees holding acquisition-related positions within such agency, except that such authority to pay a bonus shall be available only if: (1) the unusually high or unique qualifications of an individual or a special need of the agency for the services of an employee makes reemployment of an individual essential; and (2) the agency determines that, in the absence of such a bonus, it is likely the employee would leave the Federal service or leave for a different position in the Federal service under conditions described in regulations of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy.

Makes payment of such a bonus contingent upon the employee entering into a written agreement with the agency to complete a period of service with the agency in return for the bonus. Prohibits a bonus from exceeding 50 percent of the employee's basic pay and from being part of such pay of the employee. Permits a bonus to be paid to an employee: (1) in installments after completion of specified periods of service; (2) in a single lump sum at the end of the period of service required by the agreement; or (3) in any other manner mutually agreed to by the agency and the employee. Prohibits bonuses from being being paid to Presidential appointees, non-career appointees in the Senior Executive Service, and employees who hold a position which has been excepted from the competitive service by reason of its confidential, policy-determining, policy-making, or policy-advocating character.
