A.8 GSA AUTOMOTIVE PROGRAM

GSA awards and administers the Automotive program. It purchases over $1 billion in high-quality vehicles and automotive services annually at significant savings for customer agencies. Under this program, GSA enters into Government-wide contracts with commercial firms to provide commercial products at stated prices for given periods of time. GSA Automotive offers a large selection of vehicles and related products and services. GSA is also the mandatory source for all new, non-tactical light vehicles for executive agencies. As a procurement agent of the United States

GSA Automotive simplifies the procurement process for Federal agencies and industry partners.

GSA ―prequalifies‖ companies by ensuring that a company meets the responsibility determinations required by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 9 and offers products that meet Federal vehicle standards. GSA also examines the prices received as a result of this competitive procurement and determines price reasonableness as it leverages the government‘s purchasing power. Following the GSA Automotive program ordering procedures, agencies will make a best value determination and place their order directly through Autochoice.

AutoChoice is GSA‘s secure on-line ordering application for light vehicles, ambulances, medium/heavy vehicles, buses, wreckers and car carriers. With AutoChoice, agencies can:

Configure vehicles and choose vehicle equipment options

View side-by-side comparisons of vehicle models from vehicle manufacturers
