Phase 1 - GSA Proposal Preparation & Submission:

First, you prepare a GSA proposal based on the specific GSA schedule's solicitation and then submit it to GSA via GSA's eOffer system.

Phase 2 - GSA Review & Contract Negotiation:

GSA carefully performs its due diligence and reviews the proposal to determine if your firm is a Responsible Vendor.  GSA then evaluates the offered pricing and tries to negotiate better terms. Once negotiation is complete, GSA awards the contract. Phase 2 can take 4-12 months these days, although TurboGSA's efficiency can speed this up.

Phase 3 - GSA Contract Award and Startup:

The initial steps you should take after receiving a GSA contract include:

  • registering the contract,
  • uploading the price list and catalog to GSA Advantage, and
  • setting up your profile in eBuy.

Phase 4 - Ongoing GSA Contract Management and Marketing:

This stage involves the long term care and marketing of the GSA contract.  Whenever you want to change pricing or add or delete products or services, you must prepare a contract modification request for approval.  Contract administrators must work with sales and marketing to ensure everybody is compliance with contract terms. Sales and marketing personnel must understand how to use the schedule so that your firm reaps all the benefits a GSA contract offers.
