Micro-Purchase Delegation of Authority
Executive Agencies and the Judiciary may directly procure projects and services without a Reimbursable Work Authorization (RWA) in facilities under GSA control if:
- The cost of the work is at or below the Micro-Purchase threshold.
- The Agency has received the written approval of the GSA Building/Property Manager or, if a leased building, the written approval of the GSA Lease Administration Manager (LAM) and Lease Contracting Officer.
- Authority has transferred from the head of the customer agency to the requesting agency official.
