House Passes GSA Reorganization The House has unanimously approved legislation to reorganize General Service Administration. The bill, H.R. 2066, would combine GSA’s Federal Supply Service and Federal Technology Service into a single entity. The legislation, sponsored by Government Reform Committee Chairman Tom Davis (R-VA), would also authorize the GSA administrator to appoint up to five “regional executives” for the Federal Acquisition Service. GSA’s inspector general has cited the independence of the current regional offices as a contributing factor in violations of procurement laws and regulations. GSA officials are already drawing up a reorganization plan. Administrator Stephen Perry has said he expects the plan to be ready by July.
