TO: Printing and Publishing Officials of the Federal Government
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 1999 Open Requisitions
This letter is to notify you that now is the time to submit open requisitions for Fiscal Year 1999. To allow sufficient time for processing and enable us to provide timely feedback to our customers, we have established a cut-off date of June 12, 1998, for all open requisition submissions for noncongressional products. Requisitions received after this date will not be processed until all previously submitted requisitions have been processed (which could be after October 1, 1998). Please see the "Congressional Materials" enclosure for information regarding the due date for open requisitions for congressional products.
To help us avoid any problems or delays in processing your requisitions, please ensure that:
In addition, the following information must appear on each requisition:
Open requisitions for Fiscal Year 1999 should be submitted to GPO through your agency's Washington, DC, headquarters office. Open requisitions and riders for Regional programs should be sent directly to the appropriate Region, not to the Central Office. In addition, consolidation to one distribution location per agency address in lieu of multiple room addresses would be greatly appreciated. Please note that open requisition numbers for Fiscal Year 1999 should begin with the prefix 9 (e.g., 9-00001).
Requisitions should be submitted for items such as continuance of commercial term contracts, current work programs, dated periodicals, Operating Manuals maintenance material, Congressional material, mailings by the Superintendent of Documents (SuDocs), orders for Paper and Materials Control Section, and standing riders (not one-time riders) for materials ordered by other agencies on a continuing basis. (See the following listing of materials for which GPO accepts open requisitions.)
Inquiries concerning ordering of Congressional materials may be directed to Ms. Joyce Ashford, 202-512-0224, Congressional Printing Management Division. Any other inquiries concerning this letter may be directed to Ms. Carolyn Barger, 202-512-0244, or Ms. Hazel Robinson,
Sincerely,
ROBERT G. COX
Superintendent, Departmental
