About this file
This document is a Final Rule issued by the General Services Administration (GSA) Interagency Committee on Security Equipment and Locking Systems on February 10, 2025, addressing the authorized sales methods for new GSA-approved security containers. The rule explicitly states that GSA-approved manufacturers are prohibited from selling new security containers to third-party vendors like KL Security or Safe and Vault.com. The only two authorized sales methods are: 1) through the GSA Global Supply procurement process, or 2) via Direct Purchase Authority (DPA), which requires prior GSA approval and is limited to a one-time sale directly between the manufacturer and a specific industrial contractor.
The document warns that any unauthorized sales of new GSA-approved "limited use" security containers by manufacturers listed on the Qualified Products List (QPL) using procurement processes outside the two specified methods will result in immediate suspension from the QPL and referral to the GSA Suspension and Debarment Office for Cage Code rescission. The rule is a reissue of a previous communication from November 2022 and is signed by Christopher Pollock, Chairman of the Interagency Committee for Security Equipment (IACSE), and Roy Jusino, Chairman of the Security Equipment and Locking Systems (SEALS) Sub-committee.

Subject: Final Rule - Sale of New GSA-Approved Containers (Reissue)
Reference: Final Rule - Sale of New GSA-Approved Containers, November 2022
GSA Manufacturers, The General Services Administration, Interagency Advisory Committee on Security Equipment
(GSA/IACSE) and the GSA Contracting Office have reviewed all the information provided in the responses to the referenced letter and now issue this Final Rule.
• No authorized method exists for a GSA-approved manufacturer to sell a new GSA-approved security container to a third-party vender such as KL Security, Safe and vault.com, Tidewater
Lock & Key, Laser Plus imaging etc.
• Two methods a manufacturer can use to sell new GSA-approved security containers:
o Through the GSA Global Supply procurement process.
o Direct Purchase Authority (DPA). The DPA process is very limited and must be approved by GSA prior to the sale. Authorizes a onetime sale directly between the GSA-approved container manufacturer and the industrial contractor indicated on the DPA approval letter signed by GSA.
Any future unauthorized sale of new GSA-approved “limited use” security containers by a manufacturer listed on the Qualified Products List (QPL) using any procurement process other than the two listed above will result in a manufacturers immediate suspension from the QPL and will be referred to the GSA Suspension and Debarment Office for Cage Code rescission.
