Most of the GPO's work will be done via sub-contracts to academic and industrial teams. However, there are no sub-contracts for technical work yet. As the GPO identifies engineering risk, it will put out solicitations for proposals. The solicitations will be open to both academia and industry and there will be a peer review process to help determine which proposals the GPO should fund.

The U.S. Government Printing Office's core mission, Keeping America Informed, dates to 1813 when Congress determined the need to make information regarding the work of the three branches of Government available to all Americans. This is the inherent function of Government which GPO carries out for Federal agencies on behalf of the public.

As Public Printer, Robert C. Tapella serves as the Chief Executive Officer of the GPO, responsible for overseeing GPO's day-to-day printing, printing procurement and information dissemination operations serving Congress, Federal agencies and the American public.

GPO is the Federal Government's primary centralized resource for gathering, cataloging, producing, providing, authenticating, and preserving published information in all its forms. GPO is responsible for the production and distribution of information products and services for all three branches of the Federal Government.

GPO Access is a service of the U.S. Government Printing Office that provides free electronic access to a wealth of important information products produced by the Federal Government. The information provided on this site is the official, published version and the information retrieved from GPO Access can be used without restriction, unless specifically noted.

There are approximately a quarter of a million titles available to the public via the Internet on the GPO Access Web site at www.gpoaccess.gov. Through GPO's partner Web sites, an additional half a million titles are accessible to the public. Printed copies of more than 5,500 of those documents ranging from Supreme Court opinions to reports from the Bureau of Labor Statistics may also be purchased from the GPO Sales Program in person, online, via phone, fax, email, or postal mail.

Unlike most Federal agencies, GPO operates much like a business - it is reimbursed by its customers for the cost of work performed. GPO also receives two appropriations each year. One pays for the cost of congressional printing, and the other to fund the cataloging, indexing, distribution and online access to Government documents, through the FDLP.

GPO's central office is located at 732 North Capitol Street N.W., Washington, DC 20401. In addition to its headquarters, GPO has offices in 16 cities across the country. For more information, please call 202.512.0000.

They usually have a smaller number of members than the standing committee and are responsible for studying a much more specific subject matter. The members appointed to a sub-committee are usually chosen from among the members of the standing committee that created the sub-committee.

NIFC is messing around with a national "call-when-needed" engine contract based on geographical locations and "best value" pricing to the government. This means, basically, they take into account experience of crew, equipment and engine age and capabilities and throw them all into a blender and come up with what they call "best value." I know NIFC is trying to get it out this year, but it is behind schedule as it is being churned in the political grinder.
