Proposed rule

General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation; GSAR Implementation of Executive Order 14275, Acquisition of Utility Services

Built by the Tribune's code from the Federal Register. No AI wrote this page. Published in the Federal Register Oct. 5, 2026. Document 2026-20317. Updated Nov. 6, 2026.

What it does

GSA is proposing to amend the General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) part 541 which outlines procedures and guidance for the procurement of utility services. GSA guidance does not apply to agencies using their special authorities listed in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) section 41.103(a)(2) and (3). This proposed rule would align the GSAR with the FAR Council's proposed rule for FAR part 41.
