MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Administration
FROM: James H. McDonald
Director of Logistics
SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
1. Action Requested: This memorandum provides information
concerning the implementation of GSA's "Furniture Management
Reform Program" and a recommendation for the approval of the
Deputy Director for Administration.
2. Summary:
a. On 11 October 1979, GSA imposed a Government-wide
moratorium on the procurement of furniture pending a review of
existing Government furniture assets and procedures (Para-
graph 3.a.).
b. In February 1980, GSA presented a five-point
management program to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
for approval (Paragraph 3.b.). The principal points are:
-- Require that each agency develop a detailed Furniture
Expense Plan for fiscal year 1981 for review and
approval by GSA and OMB.
-- Require that GSA and each agency jointly develop an
inventory schedule of all furniture stocks in each
agency's possession.
-- Continue the moratorium on procurement of furniture
pending completion and approval of each agency's
Furniture Expense Plan.
c. On 27 February 1980, OMB endorsed GSA's program
and issued Bulletin 80-6, which prohibits the purchase of
furniture pending satisfactory compliance with GSA's program
(Paragraph 3.d.).

SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
d. GSA has granted exceptions for the procurement
of safes and for overseas requirements (Paragraph 3.e.).
e. On 14 March 1980, GSA verbally exempted CIA from
the requirement of forwarding purchase orders to GSA (Para-
graph 3.g.) and from the necessity of conducting a joint GSA-
CIA survey of agency furniture stocks (Paragraph 3.g.).
f. The GSA-OMB program will have the following
adverse impact on this Agency's operations:
-- We will be unable to support, on a timely basis,
Headquarters and station requirements
for furniture, except for whatever is available in
Agency stocks (Paragraph 4.a.).
-- The development of an Expense Plan will require a
major expenditure of-scarce personnel resources and
will require disclosure of classified information to
uncleared GSA and OMB personnel (Paragraphs 4.d. and
4.e.).
- The Expense Plan may open this Agency to a collateral
attack by an FOIA request to GSA (Paragraph 4.d.).
-- It is not certain that GSA's program will be limited
to furniture (Paragraph 4.f.).
g. This Agency should seek an exemption from the
Furniture Management Reform Program based on our need to
protect classified national security information; i.e., staffing
levels, covert facilities, and sources and methods.
3. Background:
a. On 11 October 1979, GSA imposed a moratorium on
the procurement of furniture, except for emergency requirements,
pending a review of existing Government furniture assets and
procedures (Attachment 1).' On 19 October 1979, GSA expanded the
moratorium's coverage by inclusion of furnishings (Attachment 2).
Subsequently, GSA permitted purchases of furniture and furnishings
from the National Industries for the Blind and Severely Handi-
capped. It also permitted procurements under Federal Supply

Schedule contracts, provided the procuring agency determined
the procurement was essential to meet a current need and that
a copy of any resulting purchase order was forwarded to GSA
(Attachment 3).
b. During the period Ocotber 1979 - February 1980,
GSA reorganized its management procedures for the purchase and
utilization of.furniture. By letter, dated 6 February 1980
(Attachment 4), the Administrator advised the Director, OMB,
that GSA was prepared to initiate a five-point management
program as follows:
(1) Fix responsibility at a high level in GSA
and in each agency for the management of furniture and
other high-value, high-demand personal property.
(2) Institute immediately an intensive manage-
ment program over all high-value, high-demand furniture
items, titled Operation VALIDATE.
(3) Institute special procedures to assure full
use of furniture reported as excess, and of furniture not
in use which is held by individual agencies, titled
CLEAN SWEEP.
(4) Systematically determine the furniture
requirements of each agency, and develop Expense Plans
for approval by OMB and enforcement by GSA.
(5) Continue vigorous efforts to improve
furniture quality control procedures while insisting on
simple but realistic specifications for furniture.
c. A GSA internal memorandum, dated 11 February 1980
(Attachment 5), provides an insight into the seriousness with
which GSA and OMB are pursuing this program. The following
information is extracted therefrom:
Page 2: OMB will require each agency to submit a
Furniture Expense Plan as part of its budget
submission. Furniture may not be purchased
until the plan is approved by OMB.

Page 2: Each agency is to appoint a "Property Management
Officer" (PMO) with knowledge, stature, authority
and accountability required to assure realistic
planning of requirements and effective super-
vision over the acquisition and utilization of
furniture and other high-value personal property.
Page 3: Operation VALIDATE:
(a) Initiate intensive management program over
a control group of 729 items having a useful
life in excess of one year.
(b) Within the control group, 249 high-value
items will require:
1. Separate property records.
2. Special high-level agency validation
prior to effecting a purchase.
3. Itemization by line item in the annual
Expense Plan submitted to GSA and OMB.
Page 4: Operation CLEAN SWEEP:
(a) Agency PMO's will receive Government-wide
listings of excess furniture for screening.
Page 5: (b) GSA and each agency will jointly survey
agency-held furniture resources and:
1. Document the purpose for which the
stocks are being held.
2. Determine whether justified.
3. Return to GSA stocks not fully
justified.
Page 5: EXPENSE PLAN:
(a) PMO's and GSA will develop techniques of
forecasting requirements.

can be monitored.
(1) Requisitions for items supplied by the
National Industries for the Blind and Severely Handicapped.
(2) Items ordered directly by agencies from
Federal Prison Industries.
(3) Those items in Federal Supply Class 7110
that are neither office nor household furniture (safes,
school and library furniture).
SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
d. By letter, dated 27 February 1980 (Attachment 6),
the Director, OMB, informed Senator Chiles that 0MB endorses
GSA's actions outlined above and further states that he is
immediately..."freezing the procurement of furniture by
agencies." The freeze..."will be lifted as soon as agency
Furniture Expense Plans are approved by OMB." The aforementioned
policy was published in OMB's Bulletin No. 80-6 dated
27 February 1980 (Attachment 7). OMB, by letter dated
12 March 1980 (Attachment 8), established the procedures to be
followed in review and approval of each agency's Furniture
Expense Plan. It specifically assigns to GSA responsibility
for monitoring agency furniture procurement against the approved
plan.
e. The 0MB Bulletin grants GSA authority to make
exceptions to the freeze in unusual circumstances. To date, GSA
has authorized nine exceptions (Attachment 9). The following
exceptions are relevant to this Agency's requirements:
(4) Export orders with Issue Priority Code 01
through 08.

f. On 14 March 1980 Messrs. DC/SD/OL, and ST
C/PD/OL, attended a briefing at GSA concerning the
status of GSA's actions concerning the "Furniture Management
Reform Program" and to provide agency PMO's with advance copies
of documentation formats that are to be utilized in developing
agency Furniture Expense Plans for fiscal year 1981 (Attachment
10). The following guidance was given:

SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
(1) Operation VALIDATE (new procurements).
(a) GSA is willing to grant additional
exceptions on a case-by-case basis.
(b) All furniture requirements are included
regardless of dollar value.
(2) Operation CLEAN SWEEP (survey of existing
(a) Agency furniture stocks expected to be
utilized within 12 months are protected.
(b) Surveys of agency furniture stocks will
begin on 31 March 1980.
(3) Expense Plan.
(a) Agency plan must specifically address
the 249 high-value items; the balance of
480 items in the control group may be
aggregated.
(b) GSA does not expect each agency to
conduct a physical inventory for the
fiscal year 1981 Expense Plan; any
reasonable forecast model based on
projected staff levels and charges will
be acceptable.
(c) Each agency's budget submission must
identify furniture, otherwise an agency
will be prohibited from procuring
furniture.
g. Subsequent to the. briefing, Mr. Paul Agin, Director
of the National Furniture Center, Requirements and Supply, GSA,
was requested and he verbally relieved this Agency from the
requirement to forward copies of purchase orders to GSA. He
tentatively agreed to the granting of a blanket exception for
furniture procurements in support of Agency classified domestic
facilities and-in those cases where unvouchered funds are
employed. He stated that he will discuss these matters with

 Approved For Release 2003/05/23 : CIA-RDP83-00957R000100090011-7
SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
Mr. H. McCarthy, Deputy Commissioner, Requirements and Supply,
GSA,and communicate GSA's decision as soon as possible.
Discussions also took place with Mr. Lee Harper, Chairman of
Project CLEAN SWEEP, concerning the need for a survey by GSA
personnel of furniture stocks in our depots. Mr. Harper saw
no requirement for a physical survey by GSA personnel, provided
responsible CIA personnel performed the survey and the results
are certified to GSA.
4. Discussion:
a. The policy enunciated by 0MB Bulletin 80-6
essentially has brought Agency acquisition of furniture to a
halt. Although it remains possible to support overseas activi-
ties, the support of Headquarters facilities on a
timely basis is not possible. The procurement of furniture,
not falling within the exceptions listed in Paragraph 3.e., is
subject to prior review and approval by GSA. GSA has stated
that approvals will only be granted on a case-by-case basis.
b. This situation will continue until the Agency
prepares an Expense Plan for furniture acquisitions for fiscal
year 1981 or we are exempted. GSA has stated that it will accept
an estimate of Agency holdings of furniture in the control group
of 729 items. However, GSA will require information concerning
the methodology upon which the estimate is based. It is our
understanding that a physical inventory of Agency furniture
holdings will be required for fiscal year 1982. Information
provided, either as a basis for estimates or as a result of an
actual physical inventory, can be used to develop a precise
estimate of Agency staff levels. This was verified by a GSA
official who has developed a statistical model of GSA for its
internal furniture management program.
c. It is my belief that the submission of an Expense
Plan to GSA and subsequent monitoring of any approved plan
raise significant security and resource issues. As previously
stated, information concerning staff levels and organizational
changes may be extrapolated by an analysis of such a plan. It
is assumed that GSA will employ a computer in managing this
Government-wide program. Thus, it will be difficult for GSA
to restrict access to information concerning CIA. Further, GSA
may be subjected to Freedom of Information Act requests for
information relating to CIA.

SUBJECT: Furniture Management Reform Program
d. This Agency purchases furniture by use of both
classified and unclassified contracts. Although GSA has
verbally agreed that CIA is not required to submit copies of
its contracts to GSA, it is not certain that such a policy is
permanent, since GSA review of agency furniture contracts will
be the primary tool for monitoring actual furniture purchases
against each Expense Plan.
e. The creation of physical inventory records of all
furniture in use will require a significant expenditure of
scarce personnel on a world-wide basis. This Office is not in
a position to undertake such a program without substantial
augmentation of personnel.
f. It is not certain that this program will be limited
to furniture. GSA, in its 6 February 1980 letter to OMB,
specifically makes mention to the need for better management
of "...other high-value personal property items..." GSA is
currently reviewing the need for assuming total responsibility
for the acquisition of typewriters in lieu of permitting
agencies to purchase units under Federal Supply Schedule con-
tracts (Attachment 12). It is conceivable that GSA and OMB
will require Expense Plans on other categories of personal
property in the future.
5. Conclusion: It is my belief that this.Agency should
request an exemption from the Furniture Management Reform
Program. The basis for the exemption should be the need to
protect classified information concerning Agency staff levels
and its organizational makeup. There is also a significant
question concerning sources and methods employed in supporting
non-official cover facilities.
6. Recommendation: In view of the foregoing, it is
recommended that this Agency seek a waiver from the Furniture
Management Reform Program from OMB and GSA. If you concur,
the necessary memoranda will be prepared by this Office. The
request will evidence this Agency's intention to abide by the
OMB-GSA guidance as far as possible. We are in the process
of preparing a Headquarters Notice for your signature informing
all Agency employees of the OMB-GSA freeze concerning the
acquisition of new furniture. The notice will communicate
our intention to adhere to the OMB-GSA guidelines as far as
practicable, including the use of current furniture stocks.

Administration Service Washington, DC 20406
DEC ! 8 1979
The Federal Supply Service of the General Services Administration has the
mission of developing agencies' requirements, including performance charac-
teristics, for common-use commercially available products.
Typewriters, a high-dollar-volume, common-use product, provide a pro-
ductive area for potential cost savings to agencies and to taxpayers. The
Federal Supply Service has developed the enclosed questionnaire to determine
agencies' electric typewriter requirements. Enclosed is a copy of a letter
sent to a key official in your agency which explains our objectives.
To ensure that the typewriters, which will be_procured by GSA, will meet
your agency's requirements, we need specific information about probable
quantities and necessary features. A competitive procurement, as you know,
requires the best estimate of your total requirements so that minimum quantity
guarantees can be made to industry in making a solicitation. To obtain the
needed information, we need answers to the items in the enclosed questionnaires.
Our questionraires state the data will be used for planning the FY 1980 acquisition.
This is no longer appropriate in view of the slippage in this project. The informa-
tion you provide in these questionnaires will be used to plan acquisitions to meet
your requirements for FY 1981. Until then, agencies should continue to purchase
typewriters under the current systems.
Included with the survey questionnaires are the proposed commercial item
descriptions for single element and typebar electric typewriters. These
descriptions were instrumental in formulating the questionnaires. If you

have comments on the commercial item descriptions, they can be forwarded
now or at the time you submit your completed questionnaires.
Your cooperation is greatly appreciated. It will help the Federal Supply
Service do a better job serving the Federal Government and the taxpayer,
and help maximize the value of your agency's budget dollars.
Please insure that the enclosed questionnaires are returned directly to the
address in the upper right corner of the questionnaires within 90 days from
date of this letter. If you have any questions, please call Mr. James B. McNallen

As you know, the GSA supply program has come under much criticism and
review over the past few months requiring us, at GSA, to reassess many of
our programs and procedures. One specific area which we have reviewed
as a result of a GAO audit report is our Multiple Award Schedule program.
One of the government's largest volume purchases (approximately $50 million
per year) made through our multiple award schedules system is typewriters.
As a result of our review, as well as GSA's efforts to comply with OMB's
FY 80 directive to reduce overhead throughout government,. I have decided to
revise our method for acquiring typewriters.
We are developing a Life Cycle Cost (LCC) approach to evaluating typewriter ?
bids and will buy typewriters by definite quantity procurements, usin Commer-
cial Item Descriptions, based upon t is C method.
To accomplish this objective, it is essential that the Federal Supply Service
and all agencies work together so that each agency will be able to acquire
the common--use goods and services it needs to fulfill its mission at the lowest
possible cost. To facilitate the accomplishment of these goals the Federal
Supply Service will change, where appropriate, the method of supply for
high-dollar-value , common-use items from a multiple award approach to a more
intensive competitive approach.
Typewriters, an important, costly, common-use item, are the first major
product targeted for action. Several state governments have demonstrated
that significant cost savings can be realized through increased competition
in this area. Additionally, the General Accounting Office has recommended
that efforts should be intensified to identify products, currently supplied on
a multiple award basis, which can be acquired more competitively.

The purpose of this letter is to alert you and your agency and to solicit your
support and cooperation in this effort. I understand a meeting of Federal
Administrative Service Officers Group (FASOG) was held earlier this year,
at which time your agency's prinicipal administrative officer was briefed on
this proposal. I realize this change in the method of acquiring typewriters
might cause your agency some concern at first. However, in the long run,
I believe it will prove to be as satisfactory for the using agencies as the pre-
sent system. It will certainly produce high dollar savings to the taxpayer,
as well as assist the overall economy through greater competition in the market
place.
Our first step must be to collect information on agencies' typewriter require-
ments. This will be accomplished through a survey which is explained in the
enclosed material. The benefits will be the cost savings realized by your
agency and by the Federal Government as a whole. However, of equal concern
is the development of procurement techniques which will result in obtaining
typewriters not only at a lower cost, but also of satisfactory quality. The
accurate and timely completion of the enclosed questionnaires by your agency
will help ensure that both objectives are achieved.
I am enclosing a set of the typewriter survey materials which will be sent
within two weeks to logistics personnel within your organization (enclosures).
We need your assistance in getting your agency to submit the necessary data
within 90 days from the date of this letter.
If you have any questions about this plan, please contact Mr. Paul Caggiano,
Director, Office of Requirements, Federal Supply Service (FRR), Washington,
DC 20406, or call him on 703-557-1733.
Thank you for your help .
