At Winvale, we often consider the pricing section of a GSA Schedule offer the most important to focus on because a lot of time and effort needs to be put into making certain that a prospective GSA Schedule contractor is putting forward the best pricing package that they can offer to GSA while maintaining a healthy profit margin. We have been through many scenarios with contractors and come across a number of mistakes that are commonly made when crafting, or modifying, GSA Schedule pricing. I would like to take you through a list of common mistakes contractors make with their GSA Schedule pricing, so that you can avoid them when dealing with your own GSA Multiple Award Schedule or offer.

The age-old question when researching services is: does paying more for a high-end service make it worth the investment? When companies decide to pursue a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), it doesn’t take long to see there’s no shortage of firms offering GSA Schedule consulting. But if you haven’t noticed already, the pricing ranges wildly. This leaves many companies wondering if they can get just as good of a service if they select a cheaper option. It really depends on what kind of support you’re looking for and what kind of long-term investment you’re trying to make.

In the recently released Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Solicitation Refresh #28, GSA restructured the requirements for new offerors or existing contractors proposing products that they do not manufacture, and instead, resell. Prior to this Solicitation Refresh, new offerors or current contractors adding products they did not manufacture to their GSA Schedule contract or proposal were required to submit a Letter of Supply to demonstrate they have the authority to distribute these products. However, GSA has now restricted the Letter of Supply requirement to only resellers under Large Category F (Information Technology) and the Printing and Photographic Equipment Subcategory within Large Category A (Office Management).

As a GSA Schedule contractor, keeping up with Mass Modifications is one of the many contract compliance responsibilities you’ll have during the life of your contract.

Since these modifications are initiated by GSA, it can be unclear what their purpose or impact on your contract is, compared to traditional contractor-initiated modifications.
