# 501.104 501.104 Applicability.
(a) *General.* The GSAR applies to contracts for suppliers or services, including construction.
(b) *Acquisition of leasehold interests in real property.* Part 570 establishes rules for the acquisition of leasehold interests in real property. Other provisions of 48 CFR chapter 5 (GSAR) do not apply to leases of real property unless specifically cross-reference in part 570.
(c) *Relationship to state.* Some GSAR rules implement and interpret laws and other authorities affecting procurement. A GSAR rule specifically directed by statute has the force and effect of law.
[64 FR 37203, July 9, 1999, as amended at 84 FR 33859, July 16, 2019]
