361-10A Pre-Engineered/Prefabricated Buildings for Storage Solutions

Effective April 1, 2003, the General Services Administration (GSA) restructured the existing Multiple Award Schedule 539, known as Solutions and More (SAM), into five new, distinct schedules to better align with the Core Business Lines of the General Products Acquisition Center. This realignment involved dividing Schedule 539 into schedules focused on specific sectors: Schedule 056 for Buildings and Building Materials/Industrial Services and Supplies; Schedule 073 covering Food Service, Hospitality, Cleaning Equipment and Supplies, Chemicals and Services; Schedule 078 addressing Sports, Promotional, Outdoor, Recreation, Trophies, and Signs; Schedule 084 for comprehensive solutions in Law Enforcement, Security, Facilities Management, Fire, Rescue, Clothing, Marine Craft, and Emergency/Disaster Response; and Schedule 736 for Temporary Administrative and Professional Staffing. The transition required that offers under the original SAM Solicitation be accepted only until March 14, 2003, after which new submissions must be directed to the updated solicitations corresponding to each new schedule. This particular contract, titled "54 -- Buildings and Building Materials/Industrial Services and Supplies" and identified by Solicitation number 7FCI-F8-03-0056-B.FSG54, is part of this restructuring initiative under Schedule 056. The General Services Administration’s Region 7 Acquisition Center in Fort Worth, Texas, is responsible for this effort, with Kori L. Bertino serving as the Contracting Officer. The solicitations for the new schedules were made available electronically on March 14, 2003, with interested parties directed to FedBizOpps for access. This restructuring is a strategic move by GSA to streamline procurement processes and better categorize offerings for more efficient federal acquisition across these core areas.
