- Description
- The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking ways to �promote Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) in the design and construction industry� in accordance with Executive Order 13985, �Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government�, Executive Order 14035, �Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility in the Federal Workforce� and GSA�s Equity Action Plan.�� In connection with an upcoming program to modernize and construct land ports of entry as well as the ongoing design and construction program, GSA is seeking information from industry on current DEIA action and practices in the construction industry. GSA has engaged with industry trade associations and public sector agencies to learn more about what types of DEIA practices and opportunities exist. And while GSA knows there is market availability, there is more to learn from industry regarding barriers to implementation of DEIA actions as well as best practices for GSA-funded construction projects, and what opportunities there may be for our agency to consistently use such information and specifications in the future to improve DEIA. This Request For Information (RFI) is for general fact-gathering purposes only. Interested parties will not be reimbursed for any costs related to providing information in response to this RFI. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI.� The Government will also not evaluate information received in response to the RFI as part of a future procurement.
