And Then There Was One... GSA Schedule

Client Alert | 1 min read | 11.28.18

The General Services Administration announced yesterday that it will consolidate the agency’s 24 Multiple Award Schedules into one single Federal Supply Schedule that includes both products and services. Through this consolidation, which GSA anticipates will take two years through a phased approach, the GSA intends to ease the process of purchasing for government customers, allowing for greater flexibility to combine products and services into a single combined solution. For government contractors, this combination is expected to ease the administrative burden associated with holding more than one schedule for multiple lines of businesses including products and/or services. We expect there will be more information in the coming months on this major reform; the GSA has already announced an industry day on December 12 from 9:30 – 2:45 EST when the consolidation will be discussed more broadly.
