Article I. GSA Order ADM 4800.2H “Eligibility to Use GSA Sources of Supply and Services” provides definitions and listings of agencies and organizations authorized to use U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) sources of supply and services. It also provides definitive guidelines concerning eligibility requirements. Tribes and Tribal Organizations are eligible as follows:
Page 4 of 21
Section I.01 GSA Order ADM 4800.2H, Paragraph 7.d.(4) Non-Federal firefighting organizations cooperating with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service. Pursuant to 40 U.S.C. § 501 and 16 U.S.C. § 580a, it has been determined that certain non-Federal firefighting organizations may purchase wildfire suppression equipment and supplies from the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS). This determination is reflected in an interagency agreement between GSA and the USDA, Forest Service. (FAS No. FM-IA-06-002, December 27, 2006).
(a) GSA Program(s): State and local organizations wishing to purchase wildland fire supplies must first enter into a cooperative agreement, thereby obtaining "sponsorship," from their state. It is the decision of the State Forester and ultimately the Forest Service to grant sponsorship to a requesting organization. The cooperative agreement must be approved prior to assignment of an Activity Address Code (AAC). The first step in obtaining such an agreement is to contact the state's Federal Excess Personal Property (FEPP), see Appendix 1 – Contact Information “National Wildland Fire Program”.
(i) National Wildland Fire Program: GSA Global Supply currently provides wildland fire products to state and local agencies that have cooperative agreements with USDA’s Forest Service. GSA is currently in the process of transferring the Wildland Fire Program to the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). Effective May 1, 2014 the DLA is assuming program management responsibilities for the specialized wildland firefighting equipment previously provided by GSA. To learn about the National Wildland Fire Program, visit www.gsa.gov/fireprogram. (Includes key documents and program updates.)
Section I.02 GSA Order ADM 4800.2H, Paragraph 7.d.(5) Tribes and Tribal Organizations (a) The Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA). As provided in section 102(13) of Pub. L. 103-413 (the Indian Self Determination Act Amendments of 1994), a tribal organization, when carrying out a contract, grant or cooperative agreement under ISDEAA, is deemed an executive agency for purposes of 40 U.S.C. § 501. (See 25 U.S.C. § 450j(k)). Additionally, if the self-determination contract contains a provision authorizing interagency motor pool vehicles and related services, as provided in Section 103 of the Indian Self-Determination Act Amendments of 1994, the tribe or tribal organization is eligible to use GSA Fleet motor vehicles and related services, if available (See 25 U.S.C. § 4501.) Authorization to use GSA sources of supply under the authority cited in this paragraph does not include purchases for resale unless the contract, grant, cooperative agreement, or funding agreement authorizes such activity. Information on the authority for resale must be provided to GSA, and based on that information, GSA must concur.

(a) GSA Program(s): The sponsoring/funding Federal Agencies (Department of Interior-Bureau of Indian Affairs & Department of Health and Human Services-Indian Health Service) are responsible for determining eligibility; designating the GSA Programs(s) authorized for use and requested an Activity Address Code (AAC). (See Appendix 1 – Contact Information “Sponsoring/Funding Federal Agency-Activity Address Code (AAC) Contacts”.) Tribes or Tribal Organizations should have an authorization letter from the sponsoring/funding Federal Agency that designates the authorized GSA Program(s) available for use, as GSA and GSA Contractors may request a copy of the written authorization for verification.
(i) GSA Global Supply™ Program: GSA Global Supply™ provides easy and flexible requisition-based ordering for office supplies, tools, computer products, safety gear, and more.

With procurement complete and compliance guaranteed, customers can confidently place simple requisitions with GSA Global Supply™ for desired items without having to solicit comparison prices from multiple sources. Since this is a requisition and not a procurement action, Indian Preference does not apply.

As provided in section 101 of Pub. L. 110-411 (the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Reauthorization Act of 2008), for purposes of 40 U.S.C. § 501, each Indian tribe or tribally designated housing entity shall be considered to be an executive agency in carrying out a program, service, or other activity under a block grant pursuant to NAHASDA; and each tribe or tribally designated housing entity shall have access to sources of supply on the same basis as employees of an executive agency.
