          CHAPTER 101--FEDERAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT REGULATIONS

 

PART 101-26_PROCUREMENT SOURCES AND PROGRAM--Table of Contents

 

             Subpart 101-26.3_Procurement of GSA Stock Items

 

Sec. 101-26.303  Out-of-stock items.



    Generally, it is more advantageous to agencies if GSA backorders 

requisitions for out-of-stock items rather than cancels requisitions. 

Unless notified by agencies not to backorder a requisition, through 

FEDSTRIP advice codes 2C or 2J, a back order will be established. The 

agency will be notified of the estimated date that shipment will be 

made. Upon receipt of the status transaction, the agency shall determine 

if the estimated shipping date will meet its needs and, as appropriate: 

(a) Accept the back order, (b) request a suitable substitute item, or 

(c) request cancellation in accordance with Sec. 101-26.309.
