Delays In GSA's Process

For Contracting For

Architect/Engineer Services


GSA takes longer to award architect/engi-
neer contracts for construction and major
repair and alteration projects than other
Federal agencies GAO reviewed. Delays
occur at almost all phases in the award
process, with frequent revisions to the
scope of work being the primary cause for
delays. Due to inflation, delays in awarding
contracts for architect-engineer services
increased construction, repair, and altera-
tion costs.

GSA's efforts to improve the architect/en-
gineer process should shorten the time to
award contracts. GAO endorses these ef-
forts and encourages GSA to continue to
improve the architect/engineer process.
