Occupancy Agreement Space Inventory System (OASIS)
The Public Buildings Service has transitioned from our current occupancy Agreement tool (OATool/eOA) to a new OA application - the Occupancy Agreement and Space Inventory System (OASIS).
Access OASIS at oasis.gsa.gov. If you experience any problems accessing the system please contact the National Help Desk at 866-450-5250 or email at PBSNationalHelpdesk@gsa.gov. Users must have a valid max.gov account to access OASIS. If you are having difficulties with your max.gov account, please work with their help desk directly at MAXSupport@max.gov or 202-395-6860.
Customer Training Video Now Available
The PBS OASIS team is releasing several videos related to the new system and related pricing policy changes. Please see the offerings below.
Changes to GSA Processes for Occupancy Agreements
OASIS provides a more efficient and effective way for customers to manage their OAs, but there are changes associated with the transition. Starting immediately, for occupancies effective in the second half of FY24, GSA will send the first OA right before lease or construction contract award, based upon actual bids. This timing change will greatly reduce the volume of OAs sent to customers. The award OA will document a customer’s financial obligation to GSA once a contract is awarded. All OAs will, therefore, represent a pending contract action waiting for customer approval and OA approval is needed in a timely manner to avoid delaying your project.
As part of the project planning process, GSA will continue to provide Client Project Agreements (CPAs) around 30 months prior to a customer’s occupancy effective date (for non-prospectus projects). For prospectus projects, CPAs will be provided around 12-18 months before OMB submission, at the end of strategic requirements development. The CPA is not a financial commitment. It records the high level parameters for your space and the project's initial financial estimates. The financial obligation comes later upon approval the OA sent shortly before contract award. Learn more about the CPA here; the financial information is captured in Part 2, section h.
