What is Surplus Property?
The Georgia Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) Surplus Division defines surplus property as non-consumable personal property that the state no longer requires. Personal property is defined as “any fixed or movable tangible property used for operations, the benefits of which extend beyond one year from the date of acquisition.” Essentially, personal property refers to any item that is owned by the state, and is not real estate, regardless of acquisition cost or method. All UGA Surplus Property disposals must be approved by UGA Surplus Staff and Georgia DOAS Surplus Property Division prior to the physical disposition. Only UGA Asset Management staff members are authorized submit a disposal request to Georgia DOAS Surplus.
Surplus Policies
UGA Asset Management and Surplus polices can be found in the UGA Policy Library. USG institutions are required to follow the policies and procedures set by the University System of Georgia and Georgia Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) Surplus Division.
