GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION
The General Services Administration (GSA),
though not a part of the Department of Defense, does
furnish some materials and services to the Armed
Forces. It is responsible for supporting all Federal
agencies.
GSA maintains stock points at several locations
throughout the country. It also has open-end contracts
with major suppliers for such items as typewriters,
adding machines, and calculators. A good portion of
the Navy’s administrative supplies and equipment is
procured from this source.
The GSA makes contracts with many
manufacturers to buy at an agreed upon price. Most
materials used by Navy imaging facilities are on the
"GSA Schedule." This means that a local store,
carrying material you need, may sell it to you at the
established GSA price. However, material that is
stocked by the Navy must be ordered from the Navy
Supply System. Prices vary between the two systems;
sometimes you will pay more for goods when ordering
