Sustainable solutions for MRFS2

The Maintenance Repair Facility Supplies Generation 2 purchasing channel simplifies identifying and buying environmentally sustainable products. Federal agencies must ensure new contract actions meet environmental sustainability requirements.

Sustainable product options

Multiple contractors under the MRFS2 blanket purchase agreement offer a wide variety of compliant products. Sustainable options include:

  • BioPreferred
  • Energy Star
  • Environmentally preferable
  • Recycled content
  • WaterSense products

BioPreferred®

The Agriculture Department manages the BioPreferred program, which includes a mandatory federal purchasing requirement for bio-based products. These products contain materials derived from agricultural and forestry resources, such as soybeans, corn and wood scraps from the lumber industry.

Under the program, the Agriculture Department designates product categories and establishes minimum bio-based content levels. Examples include:

  • Paints with bio-based content.
  • Wood and concrete sealers.
  • Disposable food containers.

Energy Star

Energy Star, a voluntary program by the Environmental Protection Agency, helps businesses and individuals save money and protect the climate through energy efficiency. The program offers savings in energy use, greenhouse gas emissions and costs by improving efficiency in products, homes, industrial plants and commercial buildings.

Energy Star certified products under the Maintenance Repair Facility Supplies Generation 2 program include:

  • Air conditioners
  • Battery chargers
  • Ceiling fans
  • LED lighting

WaterSense

WaterSense, a partnership program by the Environmental Protection Agency, aims to protect the nation’s water supply by offering people a simple way to use less water through efficient products, homes and irrigation services.

The program helps consumers make smart water choices that save money and maintain environmental standards without compromising performance. Products and services with the WaterSense label are certified to be at least 20% more water-efficient while maintaining performance quality.

WaterSense-certified products under the Maintenance Repair Facility Supplies Generation 2 program include:

  • Bathroom sink faucets
  • Showerheads
  • Toilets

Comprehensive procurement guidelines

Under the Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines  program, the Environmental Protection Agency designates products made with recovered materials and recommends buying practices, including minimum content levels. Once a product is designated, agencies must purchase it with the highest practicable recovered material content.

Buying recycled content products ensures materials from home and office recycling programs are reused in manufacturing. Examples include:

  • Hoses
  • Latex paints
  • Recycling containers and waste receptacles

Green procurement compilation

The GSA Green Procurement Compilation helps users identify sustainable product requirements by consolidating information from federal environmental programs. Users can browse or search for products to find requirements, sample language and additional guidance.
 

Find sustainable products on GSA Advantage

GSA Advantage allows buyers to easily identify environmentally sustainable products. MRFS2 contractors must mark sustainable products with environmental symbols like Bio-preferred, Energy Star, WaterSense and CPG.

Users can limit searches to sustainable products using advanced search functions. Buyers should verify product environmental requirements with contractors before ordering.

Executive Order

Executive Order 13834, signed May 17, 2019, established streamlined federal purchasing goals. The Sustainable Acquisition section requires agencies to ensure contract actions comply with statutory requirements, including:

  • Products meeting recycled content minimums
  • Bio-based products designated by Agriculture Department
  • Energy Star certified products

Bio-based product contracting targets

The Maintenance Repair Facility Supplies Generation 2 purchasing channel helps agencies comply with the 2014 Agricultural Act’s requirements for bio-based product contracts. Agencies can use these blanket purchase agreements to meet bio-based product purchasing targets.

Additional terms and conditions

Traveler reimbursement is based on the location of the work activities and not the accommodations, unless lodging is not available at the work activity, then the agency may authorize the rate where lodging is obtained.

Unless otherwise specified, the per diem locality is defined as "all locations within, or entirely surrounded by, the corporate limits of the key city, including independent entities located within those boundaries."

Per diem localities with county definitions shall include"all locations within, or entirely surrounded by, the corporate limits of the key city as well as the boundaries of the listed counties, including independent entities located within the boundaries of the key city and the listed counties (unless otherwise listed separately)."

When a military installation or Government - related facility(whether or not specifically named) is located partially within more than one city or county boundary, the applicable per diem rate for the entire installation or facility is the higher of the rates which apply to the cities and / or counties, even though part(s) of such activities may be located outside the defined per diem locality.
