GSA Schedule Contracts benefit companies wishing to sell to the federal government, as well as federal customers wishing to purchase goods and services, by simplifying the transaction and providing federal customers with the means to make purchases efficiently.
In obtaining a GSA Schedule Contract, the General Services Administration will conduct a thorough review of a companys competencies and commercial sales practices. After negotiating discounted rates for government buyers and establishing a GSA Schedule price list, GSA will award a GSA Schedule Contract Number. When ordering under a GSA Schedule Contract, government buyers are not required to: seek full and open competition, synopsize requirements (unless the buyer is using Recovery Act funds for a purchase of $25,000 or more), or make a determination of fair and reasonable pricing. GSA has essentially completed this work on behalf of government buyers in awarding the GSA Contract.
Once awarded, a GSA Schedule Contract is valid for an initial five-year period with three five-year extension options. To maintain efficiency and profitability, it is important that a GSA Schedule Contract be kept up-to-date with current compliancy regulations, as well as a companys current pricing and offerings.
