In
1949, the U.S. Congress passed the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act and
established the General Services Administration
(GSA) to help federal agencies better serve the public by offering, at best value,
superior workplaces, expert solutions, acquisition services and management policies.
As
part of its charter, the GSA, through its Multiple Award Schedules
(MAS) program, has become a preferred means of acquisition, contracting with more than
8,000 suppliers and service providers that represent in excess of $40 billion dollars in
federal contracting annually.The GSA has
established the Schedules Program through which it and the various organizations
authorized to use the Schedules Program can efficiently contract for products and services
to meet their agency needs.
If
your business offers commercial products or services that could help the government
fulfill its various missions, then you should consider entering this great source of
opportunity, or, if you have already made the decision to participate in the schedules
program but want tobetter utilize this
resource, or have become overly burdened or deficient in your management ofthis resource, GSA Today can provide the support
and training you need.
