Beres 108992 Commissioner Transportation and Public Utilities Service General Services Administration Dear Mr. Beres: lbwl We have completed a study of theperation of inter- agency motor pools by the General Serices Administratio/jp (GSAf. Our objectives were to (1) evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the motor pools in providing vehicles to meet agencies' needs and (2) determine how GSA could improve its short term dispatch operations to decrease the millions of dollars spent by agency travelers to commercially rent vehicles. We found several aspects of motor pool operations that should be improved and warrant your attention. For example, the following problems were noted at the Washington, D.C., motor pool: --Inconvenient locations and restricted hours of opera- tion may discourage use of motor pool vehicles. --Procedures and practices on use and billing for sub- stitute vehicles need improvement. --Monitoring of motor pool operations could be improved. Our review was performed at GSA Headquarters; Region 3's motor pool in Washington, D.C.; the Honolulu motor pool in Oilt~O1 Region 9; and the Vancouver, Seattle, and Boise motor pools in Region 10. This report concerns primarily the operations of the Washington motor pool in GSA Region 3. Separate reports con- cerning the motor pools reviewed in GSA Regions 9 and 10 were issued to the respective regional administrators. LCD-78-246 (6 0177 (943451)
