This process, conducted via GSA's AutoStandards web application, assists GSA's Vehicle Buying program to develop the Government's technical requirements for motor vehicles. Vehicle types being sought by the Government for this program include, but are not limited to: - Pickup trucks - Cab & Chassis - Vocational Trucks (to include box vans, stake bed trucks and light-duty dump trucks) The General Services Administration is the mandatory source for vehicles purchased in the United States under the Federal Property Management Regulation (FPMR) 101-26.501. 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 these forthcoming solicitations and to assist in development of the Federal Vehicles Standards for the current model year and specific program. Participation in the AutoStandards process is highly encouraged for all firms seeking to participate under GSA Vehicle Buying solicitations. 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 in order to participate: 1) Interested parties must send a list of makes/models they intend to submit for consideration to John Hampson, GSA Vehicle Engineer Branch Chief, at john.hampson@gsa.gov by March 14, 2022. Please see the attached ""Current Active Models"" as a starting point and identify any deletions or additions with your firm's submission. These model lists are necessary for GSA to establish them in our database so they will be available in AutoStandards for technical data population. 2) Interested parties are required to request an AutoStandards account by March 14, 2022. 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.

GSA intends to open AutoStandards on Tuesday, March 8, 2022, and close it for vendor technical data submission on Thursday, March 31, 2022.
