48 CFR Part 517

[GSAR-TA-2022-01; Docket No. GSA-GSAR-2021-0025; Sequence No. 1]


General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation; Personal 
Identity Verification Requirements Clarification; Correction

AGENCY: Office of Acquisition Policy, General Services Administration 
(GSA).

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The General Services Administration (GSA) is issuing this 
final rule to amend the General Services Administration Acquisition 
Regulation (GSAR) to make a needed technical amendment. This technical 
amendment is to remove regulatory text regarding contract 
administration for exercising options that was incorrectly addressed in 
previous rulemaking.

DATES: Effective: November 5, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Vernita L. Misidor, Procurement 
Analyst, at 202-357-9681 or email at [email protected] for 
clarification of content. For information pertaining to status or 
publication schedules, contact the Regulatory Secretariat Division at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final rule amends the General Services 
Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) to make needed technical 
amendments. Following internal procurement management reviews, GSA 
identified the need to improve certain credentialing administration 
processes for contractors. As a result, GSA amended the GSAR through 
GSAR Case 2020-G525 to clarify the personal identity verification 
requirements (86 FR 28499). Under this rule, language regarding 
contract administration for options was also removed from regulation as 
the language speaks to internal operating procedures. However, the 
amendatory instructions for the options language was noted incorrectly 
in the rule. This technical amendment corrects that mistake and removes 
section 517.207.
