Both the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program and the OASIS+ contract vehicle have been getting a lot of attention in the professional services sphere of the government.

With both professional services vehicles set for success, you may be wondering if it’s necessary to get on both these vehicles, or where the opportunities will end up. Some contractors may also be wondering if OASIS+ will eventually merge with MAS and if it’s worth the proposal effort.

Q4 of the federal government Fiscal Year is like Christmas Eve at a mall—a spending spree full of exciting opportunities for your company and all the chaos that comes with it. While this is the most important time of year for taking advantage of government business, it can come with its own set of challenges. During Q4, government agencies are rushing to spend the remainder of their budget and releasing scores of solicitations. This means while contractors will have a great opportunity to win business during this time, they often face increased competition, tight deadlines, lack of resources, and stringent compliance requirements.
