Federal, state, and local agencies are shifting major procurement dollars into GSA Schedules, especially for contracts funded with stimulus dollars, energy projects, infrastructure projects, and information technology projects. The following information is posted at GSA's public web site and this is just one agency.

What is GSA doing as a result of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act?

GSA has submitted a $5.55 billion spending proposal to Congress highlighting the public building projects it plans to accomplish with funds from the Recovery Act. The Recovery Act directs $750 million to renovate and construct federal buildings and courthouses, $300 million to renovate and construct land ports of entry and $4.5 billion to convert federal buildings to high-performance green buildings. The complete project list is available online at www.gsa.gov/recovery.  The Recovery Act also includes a $300 million provision directing GSA to continue purchasing fuel efficient and low emission vehicles. GSA is working with other federal agencies to determine the best method to evaluate fleet vehicles eligible for replacement to meet the energy efficiency goals of the legislation.
