The effective service of GSA consultant to improve business

A GSA Schedule is a 5 year contract in which you pre-negotiate pricing and contract terms with the General Services Administration (GSA). Using these pre-negotiated rates for your company's offered prodcuts/services on your GSA Schedule, your GSA Consultant would now be able to establish Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) with federal customers seeking to purchase goods/services off of your GSA Schedule on a recurring as-needed basis.


Having a GSA Schedule will also allow your firm to establish Contractor Teaming Agreements (CTAs) with other companies that possess a GSA Schedule so that jointly both parties can list their capabilities, their qualifications, their resources, and their past performance in order to gain a competitive advantage over other companies. GSA Consultant can be a good help in this regard.

From a marketing standpoint, your company can submit unsolicited proposals (i.e. "white papers") to your customer outlining your technical solutions and pricing in accordance with the terms negotiated on your GSA Schedule with GSA consultant, while also highlighting that the contracting office can purchase directly from your firm as the suggested acquisition strategy. Implementing this strategy enables your company to steer certain opportunities directly to your firm.



From a partnering standpoint, your company can enter into partnerships with other firms without a GSA Schedule that have an existing relationship with a Federal customer that has a current requirement, and you can utilize your GSA Schedule contract vehicle to facilitate and broker the transaction where your firm or GSA consultant would perform a minimum of 51% of the work.

Finally as a federal contractor, you may be aware that the Federal Government primarily purchases commercial products and services through GSA's E-BUY System, and as such, only companies and GSA consultant who have a GSA Schedule are alerted to these opportunities that are not posted on FedBizOpps (www.fbo.gov). As such, possessing a GSA schedule will enable your firm to pursue opportunities that are solicited through GSA's E-Buy system, where there is less competition and a greater opportunity for success!
