General Services Administration Car Rental Contract Program
Gao ID: 105794 April 24, 1978The General Services Administration (GSA) short-term car rental program provides an economical means of transportation for government travelers, but some aspects of the program require attention. The number of vehicles available under contract arrangements are insufficient to meet the needs of government travelers. There would be substantial savings if GSA increased its vehicle contract rental program. There is a need for a more timely and useful car rental guide for travelers to supply information on contractors and rental rates. However, there is no need for the full insurance coverage required for contractors which exceeds state insurance law requirements and coverage on commercial car rentals.
