GSA Administrator Statement on Executive Order to Boost Quality of Federal Construction Projects

WASHINGTON — U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) Administrator Robin Carnahan issued the following statement regarding the executive order signed to improve timeliness, lower costs and increase quality in federal construction projects:

“Today’s action is another example of the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to leveraging federal investments to provide maximum value to taxpayers and communities. As we make historic investments in our country’s infrastructure, this executive order will help ensure major federal construction projects are completed on time and on budget - and with a high-quality, trained workforce that is getting paid the fair wages they deserve.
