GSA Seeks Proposals for First Montgomery County TelecentersGSA #9964 July 19, 2002
One center will be located along the Route 355/ I-270 corridors. The second will be located along the corridor defined by Georgia and New Hampshire avenues. "PBS aims to provide its Federal customers with a full range of workplace services, including teleworking capabilities," said F. Joseph Moravec, Commissioner of GSA's Public Buildings Service. "This is an important and attractive alternative to the traditional workplace. We appreciate the continuing support from Congress." The need for the new telecenters surfaced during a GSA study, requested by Congress on the recommendation of Maryland Congresswoman Connie Morella, whose district includes Montgomery County. The GSA study, released in May, showed that more federal workers live in Montgomery County than in any other jurisdiction in the Washington Metropolitan area. Separate awards will be made for each center, according to the RFP, issued July 15. Those interested in more information on the procurement may access the solicitation at http://www.eps.gov. GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal workers located in 8,300 government -owned and leased buildings in 1,600 U.S. communities.
