FAR 8.103 Information on available excess personal property.

The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.

In plain English

This section explains how contractors can find out about excess personal property that the government has available. It points to GSAXcess® as the main tool for reviewing and requesting such property, and also allows direct contact with GSA or the activity holding the property. It matters because it tells you where to look and how to ask for excess property instead of buying new.
