    This appropriation covers relocation costs involved in moving 
agencies from valuable underutilized property, targeted for public sale, 
to facilities determined to be more economically suitable to their 
needs. Relocation and disposal is considered when the benefit/cost ratio 
is at least 2:1. The sale of these valuable underutilized properties 
would provide significant revenue to the Treasury and would far outweigh 
the relocation costs involved. The unallocated balance as of the end of 
1996 is $1.547 million.

    No appropriation is requested for this program in 1998. GSA will 
solicit relocation proposals from agencies and request funds to 
implement those proposals that have the highest economic benefit to the 
Government.

    The budget reflects a legislative proposal to retire debt (principal 
and interest) to the United States Treasury incurred by the former 
Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation (PADC). The Omnibus 
Appropriations Act of 1996 mandated dissolution of the PADC as of April 
1, 1996, but did not address the PADC's outstanding debt to the 
Treasury. A legislative proposal will be submitted concurrent with the 
President's Budget which will provide the requisite authorization and 
funding to retire this debt.

    The Public Buildings Service (PBS) has worked hard to become an 
organization that looks and acts more like a private sector competitor 
than a federal bureaucracy. PBS has reorganized along major business 
lines representing the services it provides. The major business lines 
include: Property Acquisition and Realty Services (satisfying tenant 
agency space requirements); Property Development (construction and 
modernization and repair and alterations of federally-owned

[[Page 952]]

space); Property Management (managing, operating, repairing and 
maintaining federal space); Portfolio Management (managing real estate 
assets to ensure efficient planning, return on investment and use); 
Federal Protective Service (law enforcement and security within GSA-
controlled buildings); and Property Disposal (utilization and disposal 
of excess Federal real property). This reorganization is consistent with 
the initiative to privatize real property services.

    The Federal Buildings Fund finances the activities of the Public 
Buildings Service which provides space and services for Federal agencies 
in a relationship similar to that of landlord and tenant.

    The Fund, established in 1975, replaces direct appropriations by 
using income derived from rent assessments which approximate commercial 
rates for comparable space and services. Rent and other income to the 
Fund is as follows:

    The Federal Buildings Fund program consists of the following 
activities financed from rent charges:

    Construction and acquisition of facilities.--Space is acquired 
through the construction or purchase of facilities and prospectus-level 
extensions to existing buildings. All costs directly attributable to 
site acquisition, construction, and the full range of design and 
construction services and management and inspection of construction 
projects are funded under this activity.

    Repairs and alterations.--Repairs and alterations of public 
buildings as well as associated design and construction services are 
funded under this activity. Protection of the Government's investment, 
health and safety of building occupants, transfer of agencies from 
leased space, and cost effectiveness are the principal criteria used in 
establishing priorities. Primary consideration is given to repairs to 
prevent deterioration and damage to buildings, their support systems, 
and operating equipment. This activity also provides for conversion of 
existing facilities and non-prospectus extensions.

    Installment acquisition payments.--Payments are made for liabilities 
incurred under purchase contract authority and lease purchase 
arrangements. The periodic payments cover principal, interest, and other 
requirements. Purchase contract authority, which provided for private 
investment capital financing of public buildings, expired at the end of 
1975.

    Rental of space.--Space is acquired through the leasing of buildings 
including space occupied by Federal agencies in U.S. Postal Service 
facilities. This program will provide an estimated 138 million square 
feet in 1997 and 131 million square feet in 1998.

    Building operations.--Services are provided for Government-owned and 
leased facilities, including cleaning, utilities and fuel, protection, 
maintenance, miscellaneous services (such as moving, evaluation of new 
materials and equipment, and field supervision), and general management 
and administration of all real property related programs including 
salaries and benefits paid from the Federal Buildings Fund. The 
following list shows the 1997 and 1998 direct program (estimated square 
feet and expenses in millions):

    Other programs.--When requested by Federal agencies, the Public 
Buildings Service provides building services such as tenant alterations, 
cleaning and other operations, and protection services which are in 
excess of those services provided under the commercial rental charge. 
For presentation purposes the balances of the Unconditional Gifts of 
Real, Personal, or Other Property trust fund have been combined with the 
Federal Buildings Fund.

    Prior year project and activities funded from budget year income.--
Actual income for fiscal year 1996 and estimated income for fiscal year 
1997 will be $681 million less than the estimated amounts included in 
the fiscal year 1997 President's Budget. Consequently, funds in this 
amount must be provided again in fiscal year 1998, to be funded from 
fiscal year 1998 revenue to the Federal Buildings Fund.

    Agency debt.--The following table reflects agency debt outstanding 
for the construction of federal buildings under authorities previously 
provided:

    Public Law 99-88 provided that expenses of Transportation Audit 
Contracts and Contract Administration activities shall be financed from 
overcharges collected from carriers on transportation bills paid by the 
Government and other similar type refunds. Public Law 99-627 granted GSA 
authority to delegate to the Government agencies prepayment audit of 
their transportation bills before they pay transportation carriers, 
permanent authority to pay transportation audit contractors from carrier 
overcharges collected, and authority to transfer net overpayments 
collected to the Treasury. Public Law 103-123 provided that additional 
expenses be financed from overpayments collected from carriers.

    In 1996, $11 million of carrier overpayments were collected, and $5 
million was returned to the U.S. Treasury. Due to downsizing and cost 
containment, overpayment collections should fully cover program costs 
commencing in fiscal year 1998.

    This fund finances, on a reimbursable basis, a national supply 
distribution system, a system of ordering supplies for direct delivery 
to agencies, a system providing for the management, on a worldwide 
basis, for the sale of surplus personal property for agencies, a system 
of transportation and travel management which ensures discounted rates 
for lodging, transportation, and small package mailings for Federal 
customers, and a system of interagency Federal Fleet Management Centers. 
Legislation was enacted in fiscal year 1988 to authorize full cost 
recovery for all supply management, operating, and overhead expenses 
related to providing goods and services to other agencies through the 
General Supply Fund. Full cost recovery pricing results in the true cost 
of supplies and services being reflected in charges to agencies. In 
1997, the Information Technology Multiple Award Schedules Program was 
consolidated into the Supply Schedules Program in the General Supply 
Fund. In 1998, the Supply Schedules and Transportation and Travel 
Management Programs will complete their transition from appropriated 
funding to the General Supply Fund.

    Supply operations.--
        Stores, regular.--Stock of common-use commodities is purchased 
    in volume, stocked, and issued through supply facilities to 
    Government agencies. Sales were $948 million in 1996 and are 
    estimated to be $881 million in 1997 and $873 million in 1998. Each 
    year, GSA performs a ``market basket'' survey comparing the 
    commercial price to the GSA price for 120 commonly used office 
    supplies. Survey results

[[Page 955]]

    showed GSA prices to be, on average, 22% lower than major commercial 
    retailers. In terms of service, the percentage of requisitions 
    filled from stock within 15 days was 96%, exceeding the goal of 93%, 
    and requisitions were shipped in an average of 7.4 days versus a 
    goal of 10 days.
        Stores, direct delivery.--Orders for store-type items, if 
    sufficiently large and delivery time is not a factor, are placed 
    with the commercial source of supply for delivery directly to the 
    customer. Sales were $63 million in 1996, and are estimated to be 
    $62 million in 1997, and $61 million in 1998.
        Special orders.--Definite quantity requirements of commodities 
    which are not susceptible to economical stocking in supply 
    facilities are purchased for direct shipment to user agencies. Sales 
    were $1,439 million in 1996, and are estimated to be $1,420 million 
    in 1997, and $1,406 million in 1998.
        Schedules.--This contracting function provides a governmentwide 
    supply support program of commercial items and information 
    technology items required by Federal agencies and other authorized 
    users. Sales were $19 million in 1996 and are expected to be $30 
    million in 1997 and $32 million in 1998. The on-line electronic 
    catalog system, GSA Advantage, currently contains 85,000 stock items 
    available for electronic shopping. By September 1997, the universe 
    of supply products, over 4 million items, will be available on-line.
        Miscellaneous.--The Personal Property Sales Program sales were 
    $15 million in 1996 and are estimated to be $12 million in 1997 and 
    $4 million in 1998. The Transportation and Travel Management Program 
    sales were $2 million in 1996 and are estimated to be $3 million in 
    1997 and $4 million in 1998. The GSA Standard Tender of Service 
    saved an estimated $95 million through agreements with motor 
    carriers for freight shipments in 1996. The Next Day Small Package 
    Program saved $40 million, achieving a price break of 36% compared 
    to equivalent commercial rates.
        Federal Fleet Management Centers.--Services are provided through 
    a system of Fleet Management Centers. Sales were $713 million in 
    1996, and are estimated to be $793 million in 1997 and $795 million 
    in 1998. GSA's fleet management system has kept its operating costs 
    fairly level since 1993, with the average cost per mile fluctuating 
    less than 3% from 1993 through 1996. During this same period, cost 
    per mile dropped from 27.6 to 27.3 cents.
        In fiscal year 1998, GSA plans to meet quotas for alternative 
    fuel vehicle (AFV) procurements contained in the Energy Policy Act 
    of 1992. GSA plans on requesting funds from each federal agency, for 
    their prorata share of the incremental cost in procuring the AFVs.

    The Information Technology Fund was authorized by the Paperwork 
Reduction Reauthorization Act of 1986, as included in Public Laws 99-500 
and 99-591, section 821(a)(1). The Fund was established as of January 1, 
1987, and consists of the assets, liabilities and capital of the Federal 
Telecommunications Fund and the Automatic Data Processing Fund. The 
purpose of the fund is to help ensure that automatic data processing, 
telecommunications, and other information technologies are acquired and 
used by the Federal Government in a manner which improves service 
delivery and program management, increases productivity, improves the 
quality of decisionmaking, reduces waste and fraud, and wherever 
practicable and appropriate, reduces the information processing burden 
for the Federal Government and for persons who provide information to 
and for the Federal Government.

    The fund provides information technology resources to Federal 
agencies for promoting use of the latest technology to deliver services, 
and for the efficient management, coordination, operation, and use of 
such resources.

    Levels of funding for capital investments and for operating capital 
are determined through the submission and approval process of planned 
cost and capital requirements to OMB by GSA pursuant to section 
110(a)(1), Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as 
amended by Public Law 99-591.

    The Information Technology Fund finances, on a reimbursable basis, 
the following Government-wide IT programs and services:

    Federal Telecommunications Service (FTS).--The FTS provides 
Government-wide telecommunications services to all Federal agencies. The 
Interagency Management Council (IMC) serves as a Board of Directors for 
the development, coordination, and customer-driven oversight of the 
Federal telecommunications program.

    FTS2000 Long Distance Telecommunications Service.--Provides long-
distance telecommunications services to more than 1.7 million users 
through two ten-year multi-billion dollar FTS2000 contracts awarded to 
AT&T and Sprint in December 1988. The contracts provide the Government 
with low-cost, state-of-the-art, integrated voice, data and video 
telecommunications services. The contracts provide for ``services'' 
rather than equipment. GSA's role is to oversee and manage the provision 
of those services. Responsibilities include several IMC-approved 
government-wide initiatives aimed at lowering the cost while improving 
the quality and access to new services. The Blue Pages Project offers a 
significant opportunity to improve customer access to government 
services by improving the way government services are listed in 
telephone directories. Also included in this activity is the GSA support 
to government-wide national security emergency preparedness plans and 
ensuring that the critical telecommunications needs of the Government 
are available during local, national, and international crises.

    Regional Telecommunications Services.--Provides nationwide 
consolidated local telecommunications service, aggregated access to 
FTS2000, and competitively procured contracts for equipment maintenance 
and services. To take advantage of the changing local telecommunications 
marketplace GSA has initiated the Metropolitan Area Acquisition (MAA). 
The MAA will leverage market forces to gain immediate and significant 
price reductions, offer federal agencies flexibility in choosing 
services, and encourage interagency aggregation and sharing of 
telecommunications resources consistent with agency requirements and 
budgets.

    Information Security.--Provides worldwide information technology 
support services to all Government activities, including our nation's 
allies, conducting classified, sensitive but unclassified, diplomatic or 
military missions on a non-mandatory, fully reimbursable basis. To meet 
this responsibility, the program participates in the development of 
Government-wide information security policies and provides a 
comprehensive range of information security technical services necessary 
to manage and support mission critical information systems.

    Information Technology Integration.--This activity is comprised of 
several non-mandatory programs aimed at meeting client needs in the 
acquisition and effective use of information technology resources. The 
Federal Information Systems Support Program, (FISSP) provides 
information systems services to Federal agencies in the areas of IT 
business applications, facilities management, software definition and 
design, scientific/engineering applications and computer security. 
Services are provided through regional contracts with private sec-

[[Page 957]]

tor vendors tailored to local market conditions and needs of client 
Federal agencies. The Federal Systems Integration and Management Center 
(FEDSIM) manages Government-wide contracts to meet the needs of agencies 
that elect to outsource their IT requirements. Services include Federal 
Information Processing resources acquisition, systems integration, 
software management, information technology facilities management, local 
area network implementation, and networking. The Federal Computer 
Acquisition Center (FEDCAC) provides support in the competitive 
acquisition of large dollar value (more than $100 million) non-
developmental computer systems and associated services. The Information 
Services Technical Support (ISTS) Program provides GSA-wide information 
infrastructure for data communications and National Systems Program in 
support of GSA business lines.

    The Consumer Information Center Fund provides for the efficient 
operation of the Consumer Information Center's activities. Under the 
revolving fund, the Consumer Information Center's activities are 
financed from moneys deposited to the fund, consisting of annual 
appropriations from the general funds of the Treasury, reimbursements 
from agencies, fees collected from the public and other income incident 
to Consumer Information Center activities.

    Administrative expenses.--The Consumer Information Center helps 
Federal departments and agencies release consumer information collected 
as a by-product of the Government's program activities. The Consumer 
Information Center maintains close working relationships with more than 
40 Federal agencies in order to identify, develop, promote, and make 
accessible to the public Federal consumer information. In addition, the 
Consumer Information Center promotes public awareness of this 
information through publication of the quarterly Consumer Information 
Catalog, through special projects promoting the catalog, and through 
various media services. Administrative expenses are funded by the direct 
appropriation and by fees collected from the public when ordering 
publications listed in the catalog.

    Publications distribution.--The Consumer Information Center bills 
agencies and in turn reimburses the Government Printing Office for the 
costs of distributing free publications to the public.
