501.102 Authority.

The General Services Administration Acquisition Regulation (GSAR) is issued and maintained by the Associate Administrator for Acquisition Policy under the authority of the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949, as amended.

501.103 Applicability.

(a) This regulation applies to contracts for supplies or services (including construction).

(b) Parts 501, 502, 503, 505, 506, 517, 530, 533, 552, 553, 570 and Subparts 504.2, 504.9, 507.1, 509.4, 515.1, 519.3, 519.6, 519.7, 522.8, 522.13, 522.14, 532.1, 532.4, 532.6, 532.8, and 532.9 apply to leases of real property. Other provisions of the GSAR do not apply to leases of real property unless a specific cross-reference is made in Part 570.

(c) This regulation applies to the disposal of real and personal property only to the extent explicitly stated. The portions of Subpart 501.6 regarding the Contracting Officer Warrant Program and legal review and assistance, and Subpart 504.70 on the uniform procurement instrument identification system apply to the disposal of real or personal property. Subpart 509.4 regarding suspension and debarment of contractors is applicable to contracts for the disposal of personal property (see FPMR Subpart 101-45.6).

(d) This regulation may deviate from the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) when authorized. (See FAR Subpart 1.4 and Subpart 501.4.) When the GSAR does not implement the FAR, the FAR alone governs.
