Don’t Risk Losing Your GSA Schedule

Use Contract Management to Ensure Your GSA Schedule is Properly Maintained.

Keep your GSA Schedule current and compliant. Recent GSA changes to overall MAS (Multiple Award Schedule) Solicitations include revised formats, templates, and include updates and acceptance of new clauses and provisions.

What is a GSA Schedule?

NOTE: GSA Schedule buys do not require a public bid because full and open competition is deemed to have taken place at the time the GSA Schedule prices were negotiated.

Over the course of your GSA Schedule many variables can change. The base contract is for five years with three five-year extensions.  Some changes are minor, such as change in email address, location, or phone number. Other changes are more complex, but necessary to remain current including:

  • Adding and removing products or services
  • Price increases to stay ahead of costs
  • Changing terms and conditions
  • Government initiated contract modifications

There is a risk to losing a GSA Schedule if sales under the contract do not exceed $25,000 per year. There are also inherent risks if you do not account for price increases or keep your contact information current. This can lead to missed sales opportunities and important government notices.
