General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation; Contractor Identification of Products With Environmental Attributes

الملخص

The General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) is revised to further policies expressed in various statutes and executive orders that are intended to promote technological innovation and the development of products that reduce energy consumption, conserve natural resources, and are less harmful to consumers and the environment. Established executive branch policy requires Federal agencies to adopt policies that encourage industries to develop such products and to maximize their use. This change to the GSAR prescribes a clause for inclusion in multiple award schedules that encourages offerors to identify those products that they market commercially with environmentally beneficial claims.
