Federal Government Contract Vehicles
GSA MAS Contracts
The General Services Administration (GSA) is the federal government’s purchasing agent for commercial products and services. GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Contracts, or Federal Supply Schedule are highly effective general contract vehicles when you want to sell your products or services to federal agencies. MAS Contracts are designated as Best-in-Class (BIC) by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). And with the issuance of Executive Order 14240 – Eliminating Waste and Saving Taxpayer Dollars by Consolidating Procurement, GSA is the agency designated to conduct procurement for common goods and services.
Interface can help you to obtain a MAS Contract. Contrary to popular belief, they do not provide a guarantee of success, but when managed and used effectively, your GSA Contract can reduce competition, increase opportunities, and expedite the procurement process while avoiding expensive formal bidding. Interface offers GSA Contract help in support of the following services:
Getting a GSA Contract
We assist your company through the complete process of preparing the proposal and negotiating the offer with the GSA. The process of obtaining a GSA contract is notoriously confusing and time consuming, even for experienced government contractors. Our efforts serve to streamline and simplify what can be an overwhelming and time-consuming ordeal. We help you avoid the mistakes that result in extensive delays, opportunity costs, and contractual compliance issues.
Our relationship with the GSA and combined experience provides an unparalleled advantage in positioning our client’s products and services to maximize their sales. In addition, we anticipate pitfalls and reduce liabilities in the arduous process by offering consultative assistance to GSA contractors requiring any type of contract modification.
GSA Contract Management
Interface provides life-cycle support to both new and existing GSA contractors, including contract modifications, reporting requirements, GSA audits, MASS Modifications, option renewals and follow on contracts. We help ensure your pricing along with periodic reviews of your contract terms and conditions remain up to date, ensuring contract compliance and protecting your profit margins.
Maintaining up to date compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in our client’s MAS Contract is the best insurance for uninterrupted success in the government marketplace. Errors can result in suspension, hefty fines or contract cancellation that could severely disrupt sales. We help you avoid these before they become a problem.
Interface is knowledgeable and adept with the numerous GSA electronic systems such as GSA e-Library, GSA e-Buy, GSA Advantage, FCP, TDR and many more. Interface can help your company complete the PPT (if applicable) and several other catalog requirements to ensure contract success.
Interface can assist with other GSA programs outside of the MAS Contracts program such as PBS – Public Building Service, GSS – Global Supply Service, FSSI – Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiative or CPP – Commercial Platforms Program to name a few programs.
