Sec. 101-26.501-5  Procurement time schedules.



    (a) Requisitions covering vehicle types included in Federal standard 

Nos. 122, 292, 307, 794, Federal specification Nos. KKK-T-2107, 2108, 

2109, 2110, 2111, and Federal specification No. KKK-B-1579 will be 

procured either under a standardized buying program, as described in 

Sec. 101-26.501-2, or a consolidated purchase program, as described in 

Sec. 101-26.501-3, unless a statement is included justifying the need 

for delivery other than the delivery times indicated in this section. 

Requisitions containing a statement of justification will be handled on 

an emergency basis in accordance with Sec. 101-26.501-5(b).

    (b) Emergency requirements. Emergency requirements will receive 

special handling only when the requisitions are accompanied by adequate 

justification for individual purchase action. Every effort will be made 

to meet the delivery date specified in the requisition.

    (c) Delivery time. Delivery times for motor vehicle requirements 

will range widely depending on method of purchase.

    (1) Existing contracts. Delivery times for motor vehicle 

requirements submitted and placed against existing in-place contracts 

(family buy option, requirements contract or Federal Supply Schedule 

contract) will range from 60 to 150 days from date of purchase order.

    (2) Volume consolidated procurements. Delivery times for motor 

vehicle requirements submitted for volume consolidated purchases will 

range from 210 to 330 days after solicitation consolidation date. 

Included in delivery time estimates are 90 to 105 days required for 

soliciting and receiving offers, 30 to 60 days for evaluation and award 

of contracts, 90 to 180 days from date of award for delivery of vehicles 

to destination (dealer or consignee, as applicable).

    (3) For buses, ambulances, and other special duty vehicles which can 

not be procured under the standardized buying programs or consolidated 

purchase programs described in Sec. Sec. 101-26.501-2 and 101-26.501-3, 

240 to 270 days from date of award are usually required to effect 

delivery. However, special purpose vehicles with unique characteristics, 

such as certain types of firetrucks, may require longer delivery. In 

such instances, every effort will be made by GSA to facilitate 

deliveries and keep the requisitioning agencies informed of any 

unauthorized delay.
