3653. REISSUANCE OF THE GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION ACQUISITION 
REGULATION (GSAR)

Priority:  Other Significant

Reinventing Government: This rulemaking is part of the Reinventing 
Government effort. It will revise text in the CFR to reduce burden or 
duplication, or streamline requirements.

Legal Authority:  40 USC 486(c)

CFR Citation:  48 CFR 501 to 570

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: GSA plans to publish those aspects of the GSAR for public 
comment that have a significant cost or administrative impact on 
contractors or offerors, or significant effect beyond the internal 
operating procedures of the agency. After consideration of public 
comments, the entire regulation will be reissued in final form. The 
regulation will redefine the objectives of the procurement system and 
its regulatory base, establish very narrow standards for the scope and 
nature of the regulation and reduce the overall volume of the 
regulation by at least 50 percent. The General Services Administration 
(GSA) plans to revise and reissue chapter 5, 48 CFR, in its entirety. 
The reissuance will represent the culmination of the Total Quality 
Management project to review GSA's acquisition regulation/directive 
system.

``last move home'' benefits to members of the immediate family of a 
Senior Executive Service (SES) career appointee who dies while in

appointees, but who transferred prior to November 18, 1988, when 
medical center directors were not in the SES. This amendment also 
revises FTR provisions to clarify that personal funds and personal 
frequent flyer mileage may be used to upgrade to first-class 
transportation accommodations. The estimated annual economic impact of 
this amendment on all Federal agencies has not been determined to date.
