The Centralized Household Goods Traffic Management Program (CHAMP)  provides federal civilian agencies a framework for efficiently and economically transporting the household goods of their employees relocating in the interest of the government from one official duty station to another, both domestically and internationally. This includes transporting privately owned vehicles and unaccompanied baggage.

CHAMP saves agencies on average approximately 52 percent off commercial rates. GSA has arrangements with over 250 Transportation Service Providers (TSPs), both large and small, for shipping the household goods of federal employees the government requires to relocate. All TSPs must meet GSA's strict approval and quality control standards. GSA can provide a listing of available TSPs for interstate, intrastate, and international moves (including American offshore), or TSPs may access this same information from the Transportation Management Services Solution (TMSS) system. Each TSP is ranked based on the level of federal customer satisfaction with its past performance and the percentage discount off its commercial rate. Basic TSP performance requirements and program standards are published in the GSA Household Goods Tender of Service (HTOS).

The program's basic documents are the HTOS and the Request for Offers (RFO).  The HTOS provides a uniform basis for buying household goods transportation through its application, rules, and accessorial services. TSP approval, price negotiation, and TSP performance measurements are basic components in the household goods program.

In isolated instances, under TMSS, when no TSP has submitted a discounted rate for a destination outside the Continental United States, one of GSA's transportation zone offices will be glad to negotiate a specialized "one-time-only" rate to meet specific needs.  GSA can arrange for  "one-time-only" moves in one easy step.
