The Pennsylvania Department of General Services (DGS) is an agency of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania that is responsible for the purchasing of goods and services for the state government. The DGS also "maintains and protects" buildings owned by the state government. The DGS was formed, on July 22, 1975, when the Department of Property and Supplies and the General State Authority were merged into the Department of General Services.

The DGS is divided into the following sub-units:
