BILLING CODE 6001–FR–P
[GSAR Case 2020–G512; Docket No. 2024–
0010; Sequence No. 1]
GSA published a proposed rule in the
Federal Register at 89 FR 21230 on
March 27, 2024, to amend the GSAR to
create a SAM registration provision
specific for the acquisitions of leasehold
interests in real property. This provision
was prompted by the implementation of
FAR Case 2015–005 (see 83 FR 48691),
which clarified the timing of registration
in the System for Award Management
(SAM). Effective October 2018, this FAR
case implemented the requirement for
an offeror to be registered in SAM prior
to the submission of an offer as opposed
to the offerer being registered prior to
award as was previously followed
before the FAR change. While leasing of
real property is not subject to the FAR,
GSA prescribed FAR clause 52.204–7 in
solicitations for the lease of real
property. It found this FAR amendment
had a significant effect on prospective
GSA lessors.
On February 12, 2020, GSA
established a GSA specific version of
the FAR clause to permit the completion
of SAM representation for leases prior to
award instead of prior to offer for
leasing companies. GSA would
therefore only require the apparent
awardee to complete the SAM
registration. This change will codify this
provision in the GSAR.
