GSA has issued a final rule recommending that agencies provide more details in their annual reports on transportation data for freight and cargo, including household goods, procured either through contract or tender, as well as their transportation management information.
That provision in a final rule in the Federal Register is a change from the proposed rule’s provision that agencies merely would submit annually a summary report of their transportation activities.
“This rule will provide GSA the data necessary for analysis, which will assist GSA in developing enhanced governmentwide transportation policies to make transportation management programs more efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable,” the notice says.
It also recommends that agencies report their transportation management information, such as environmental justice information, agency points of contact, and transportation officer warrant information and training data.
