GSA's Vehicle Purchasing Division purchases an estimated 50,000 new model year non-tactical vehicles for Federal Executive Agencies and the Department of Defense annually. All GSA vehicle purchases are governed by program specific Federal Vehicle Standards, which are assimilated by GSA Engineering personnel prior to solicitation publication. The AutoStandards process engages interested parties to provide technical data for vehicles to be potentially offered to the Government in response to this forthcoming solicitation and to assist in development of the Federal Vehicles Standards for the current model year and specific program. Participation in the AutoStandards process is REQUIRED for all firms seeking to participate under GSA Vehicle Buying solicitations. There will NOT be an opportunity to submit alternative models after the solicitation is posted. Please note, GSA is NOT requesting pricing at this time. GSA is currently only in the requirements development phase of the acquisition. Interested parties must complete the following steps prior to AutoStandards opening (October 29, 2019) in order to participate: 1) Interested parties must send a list of makes/models they intend to submit for consideration to Dillon Akyuz, GSA Vehicle Engineer, at dillon.akyuz@gsa.gov by October 15, 2019. 2) Interested parties are required to request an AutoStandards account by October 22, 2019. A user name and password is obtained by submitting the attached "Request for AutoStandards Account" document, complete with all necessary information, to automotiveedi.partnerships@gsa.gov. Once the models are established/created, GSA will reach out to the firms that requested AutoStandards accounts to confirm the makes/models for the technical data submission. GSA intends to open AutoStandards on Tuesday, October 29, 2019, and close it for vendor technical data submission on Tuesday, November 12, 2019. Tentatively, GSA plans to hold a virtual Pre-Solicitation Conference on Tuesday, October 22, 2019, from 10:00am-12:00pm Eastern to review these instructions as well as an AutoStandards tutorial. All interested parties should plan on attending. The meeting info is as follows: To Be Provided Wednesday, Oct, 16, 2019 For a better understanding of the potential solicitation requirements, please review previous year's acquisition history located here: 2016 Main Bus Program Buses https://www.fbo.gov/notices/b05203cb642745e7d2c79f74d5c9db3d GSA anticipates similar proposal requirements and terms and conditions, though full RFP terms will be released with the solicitation posting.
