                         GSA’s implementation and supplementation
of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) is issued in the GSAM,
which includes the GSAR. The GSAM is under authorization and subject
to the authority, direction, and control of the SPE. The GSAR contains
acquisition policies and procedures that have a significant effect
beyond the internal operating procedures of GSA or a significant
cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors.</p>
