When a contractor is submitting a GSA Schedule contract offer, there are several components to complete, one of which is the Price Proposal Template (PPT). This template is a crucial part of the pricing section, where the majority of your offer will be presented. The Services and Training Price Proposal Template outlines your entire schedule in a spreadsheet format. Contractors should be aware that there are different versions of the PPT, specifically the products version and the services version. This blog focuses on everything you need to know regarding the services PPT, which differs significantly from the products version.

These are all valid questions, and we get them a lot when it comes to reporting GSA sales. Let's cover everything you need to know about Transactional Data Reporting.
