Fundamental Shift in GSA Schedule Contract Pricing?
Client Alert | 1 min read | 10.08.08
The Multiple Award Schedule ("MAS") Advisory Panel, established in March 2008 to review pricing and price reduction provisions of the MAS program, has voted to recommend that GSA eliminate, on a gradual basis, the Price Reduction Clause for purchases of both products and services under the Schedule and adopt different and better mechanisms to achieve pricing transparency and competition at both the Schedule contract level and task/delivery order level. The Panel will present its recommendations to the GSA Administrator later this year.

On August 19, 2025, the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance (“Senate Finance Committee”) sent Paul Atkins, Chairman, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a letter calling on the SEC to investigate White River Energy Corp (“White River”). In the letter, the Senate Finance Committee confirmed a criminal investigation into White River related to the sale of so-called “tribal tax credits” that according to both Congress and the IRS, do not exist. The letter further states that White River allegedly earned millions of dollars selling these credits and has not been forthcoming with investors regarding the existence of the criminal investigation. According to the Senate Finance Committee, White River has failed to file financial disclosure documents with the SEC since March 15, 2024, missing six consecutive reporting periods. The letter instructs White River to disclose the existence of the DOJ criminal tax investigation, and calls on the SEC to take action if White River fails to do so.
