Businesses new to the federal marketplace might close their first government sale by winning a quick, small-order contract. Don't pop open the champagne just yet. To win the big contracts and ensure a long-term relationship with the government, businesses must establish a strategic plan and have a contract vehicle in place. The preferred contract vehicle is the GSA Schedule. The experts at Fedmarket's 3-Day GSA eLab will help you prepare your proposal to obtain a GSA Schedule.

Why Do We Need a Contract Vehicle?
A contract vehicle is the bridge that takes you from piecemeal government sales to an established closing mechanism necessary for the government to buy from you. The established contract vehicle that all federal agencies are encouraged to use is the GSA Schedule. A GSA Schedule provides government buyers with a pre-approved price list for your products and services that makes purchasing from you straightforward.

What's the Catch?
The fact is, most companies approach the GSA Schedule proposal with exuberance and quickly find they are unable to complete it for various reasons - not enough time, too much bureaucratic gobbledygook; a lack of clear understanding how to price the proposal without risking financial viability. Fedmarket's 3-Day GSA eLab is designed to overcome these obstacles head-on.
