Understanding a Federal GSA Schedule
A federal GSA Schedule is essentially an agreement to provide goods or services to federal agencies at a previously established price. These are five-year contracts by vendors to provide goods or services to federal agencies at the price agreed upon when the contract was executed. These contracts may be renewed in increments of three years or five years with a maximum contract period of 20 years. When a vendor is approved as a GSA Schedule contractor, they are not obligated to provide goods or services unless requested by a federal agency during the contract period. Federal agencies will typically submit requests for products or services to three GSA Schedule contractors and will then select one of these contractors based on which contractor is providing the best value to the federal buyer. Contractors must undergo a rigorous application process before being approved as a GSA Schedule contractors.
