Does Your Business Need To Register For A GSA Schedule?

By Celeste Osborne


As the 2015 fiscal year gets underway, many contractors are considering the benefits of GSA schedule registration. GSA schedules are a great way to do business with the federal government, however the registration process can be daunting, especially to inexperienced vendors.

GSA Schedules are a quick and simple contracting vehicle used by federal government to purchase millions of commercial products and services at volume discount prices. The GSA Schedule program works much like a catalog, allowing purchasing officers to browse and order what they need directly from pre-approved registered vendors through the GSA Advantage website.

GSA Schedule purchases make up 10% of all federal contract awards, totaling over 19,000 purchases last year. GSA Schedules are not just for large businesses either - over 40% of all sales were to small businesses. Since purchases are made through the catalog-like website GSA Advantage and all pricing and quantities of products and services are arranged during the registration process, completing the purchase is very straight forward and simple!

Despite the ease in selling your product or service through a GSA Schedule contract, the registration process can be a nightmare. Preparing all the required documentation and forms can take over a year to complete. Additionally, finding success through GSA Schedules requires a significant investment of time and resources through marketing and networking. Not all businesses are ready for this kind of commitment and few find out before they've already made a hefty investment towards a contract.
