Are the new MAS ordering procedures mandatory?

Yes. The RFO establishes a single acquisition regulation applicable to all executive agencies. Agencies should consult their internal acquisition policy office regarding class deviations, if applicable. See here for a complete list of approved deviations.

The Navy wants a quote for 100 specific hammers (not on my FSS, but on another FSS). Can I order them from the other FSS contractor's schedule and quote the Navy, if that's the only item they need?

No, because your quote would represent 100% of the resultant order. OLMs cannot be the primary source of the order (see GSAR 538.7104-2(a)(1) (GSA CD RFO-2025-FSS-GSAR 538)).

Can agencies establish additional business practices for OLMs?

Yes, agencies have the flexibility to establish additional business practices for OLMs (see FAR 1.201 (GSA CD RFO-2025-01)).  Any such business practices must not conflict with the FSS contract, depending on the specific needs of the order.
