2025- Wheelchair Accessible Light Vehicles Program

The General Services Administration (GSA), Federal Acquisition Service, GSA/FAS Automotive Center, is conducting the 2026 Fall Open Season for the 2025 Wheelchair Accessible Light Vehicles Program under solicitation 47QMCA24R0034WC. This period allows existing contractors to provide Next Model Year (NMY) information on awarded line items and enables both current contractors and new offerors to propose new vehicle models. All proposed models must adhere to the Federal Vehicle Standards and purchase descriptions outlined by the agency. This procurement is identified under NAICS 336211 for Motor Vehicle Body Manufacturing and PSC 2310 for Passenger Motor Vehicles, with an SBA set-aside.

The schedule for this initiative includes several key phases, starting with vendor pre-bid intentions and a comment collector period that concluded in mid-May 2026. Three distinct Open Season rounds are scheduled to take place between June 1 and November 12, 2026. Ordering for the next model year is expected to open in GSAFleet.gov on December 14, 2026, ahead of the final response deadline on December 31, 2026. A virtual Industry Day was held on May 27, 2026, to review the Open Season process, and documentation from this event—including a presentation, meeting notes, and account request forms—is included among the six total attachments.

Performance is located within the United States, and the primary point of contact is Sharon Hamer. To participate in the program, vehicle suppliers must have accounts created by the GSA on the GSAFleet.gov platform, after which they can independently manage company users and roles. The agency notes that while the original solicitation may contain outdated contracting personnel or FAR clauses, these will be updated at the time of award.
