What is FEDSTRIP?
FEDSTRIP � Federal Standard Requisitioning and Issue Procedures
System � is one of GSA's older, but still commonly used requisitioning systems. FEDSTRIP was
originally developed as an offshoot of the
Department of Defense MILSTRIP Requisitioning System. FEDSTRIP is similarly
designed to allow you to accomplish a wide variety of procurement/supply actions
within a very condensed Automatic Data Processing (ADP) framework. In
both systems, codes are used as a kind of shorthand to represent information in a
condensed format. By entering the FEDSTRIP codes, GSA customers can:
- Submit a requisition for supplies.
- Check on the status of a requisition already submitted.
- Change a requisition (i.e., cancel the order altogether; substitute one of the items in it for
another item; change the ultimate destination of the shipment).
NOTE: FEDSTRIP can be used to submit requisitions for NSNs not listed on GSA Advantage. This function
simply passes the requisition into the GSA system for processing. Submission of the requisition will not
create a shopping cart nor will it be "checked out". Requistion status will be provided via your
Order History. These non-contract NSNs typically have long delivery lead-times and in some cases may not
be available.
