The General Services Administration (GSA) is an independent agency of the United States federal government that is responsible for the procurement and management of goods and services for other federal agencies. The GSA is led by the Administrator of General Services, who is appointed by the President of the United States with the advice and consent of the Senate.
The GSA's primary mission is to provide effective, efficient, and economical support services to other federal agencies. This includes the procurement of goods and services, the management of government-owned properties and facilities, and the development and maintenance of government-wide policies and regulations. The GSA also plays a key role in the management of federal government real estate, including the leasing of office space and the maintenance of government-owned buildings and grounds.
In addition to its core mission, the GSA also provides a number of services to the general public, including the management of the USA.gov website, which serves as the federal government's official web portal. The GSA is headquartered in Washington, D.C., and has regional offices throughout the United States.
