SPECIAL NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS, SUBCONTRACTORS, AND PLAN ROOMS POC: GSA, Public Buildings Service (7PMCC), Construction Svcs. Branch, 819 Taylor St., Rm. 12A28, Fort Worth, TX 76102-6105. This notice is to advise interested parties of a change in policy relevant to the construction project bidders mailing list and pre-solicitation notices from General Services Administration, Public Buildings Service, Greater Southwest Region. Advertising of upcoming construction projects in the Greater SW Region will continue to be advertised in the Commerce Business Daily, but mailing of pre-solicitation notices (green sheets) will henceforth be greatly curtailed. This new policy is intended to save taxpayers money on paper, postage, and man hours. The mailouts will only be used in cases where the Contracting Officer determines that they are necessary to generate adequate competition. It is therefore very important that persons previously relying upon the aforementioned mailings, be aware of, and use, other resources to gain information about forthcoming construction projects. The Government advertises its needs for contractors by announcement in the Commerce Business Daily. For subscription information, contact the U.S. Government Printing Office at (202) 512-1800 by telephone or (202) 512-2233 by FAX. There are also numerous private plan rooms and industry newspapers which provide information concerning Government contracting opportunities. For bid results information call, (817) 978-6162.
