Low-embodied carbon pilot

With market insights gathered from domestic manufacturers, local suppliers, small businesses, and environmental and labor groups, GSA has announced a pilot of new requirements for the procurement of substantially lower embodied carbon construction materials in GSA projects funded by the Inflation Reduction Act.

We have eleven current and upcoming federal contracting opportunities for our Inflation Reduction Act low-embodied carbon pilot projects in the following states:

All projected procurements are subject to revision or cancelation. Final decisions on the extent of competition, small business participation, estimated value, schedule dates or any aspect of the procurement are made if and when a solicitation is posted to SAM.gov. Forecast data is for planning purposes only and is not a commitment by the Government to purchase the described products and/or services. Address questions regarding a planned procurement to the point of contact listed in the record.
