Sec. 101-20.106-2  Limitations on provision of reimbursable services by GSA.

    In order to reduce processing costs of documents and to improve 
efficiency of service delivery, requests for reimbursable work to be 
performed or arranged by GSA may be subject to the following 
requirements:
    (a) Individual work authorizations (e.g., GSA Form 2957's) for which 
total expenses as estimated by GSA are less than $500 need not be 
processed by GSA, but may be returned to the requesting agency. Unless 
the work is related to security or required to correct an unhealthful or 
unsafe condition, occupant agencies may be required to hold all such 
requests until the reimbursable work in question can be aggregated into 
a single request for at least $500.
    (b) The restrictions of paragraph (a) of this section are not 
mandatory, but may be applied by GSA when their application is in the 
best interests of the Government from the standpoint of cost 
effectiveness.
    (c) The restrictions of paragraph (a) of this section do not apply 
to orders placed against existing blanket or open-end authorizations 
which exceed $500 and which show obligated and unused fund balances 
sufficient to perform the work.
    (d) Agencies requesting reimbursable services are responsible for 
verifying and approving GSA estimates within 30 calendar days following 
submission of

such estimates to the requester. Reimbursable work requests for which 
estimates have not been approved within 30 days will be canceled.
