    Build your Success with the GSA

    Building your success with the General Services Administration is a step-by-step process that requires a lot of knowledge and determination. Leverage the GSA Schedule assistance of true-grit professionals. Price Reporter will navigate you through the storming sea of the federal market towards increased sales. We help customers become successful with their GSA schedule.

    How to create your success with the GSA?

    As a matter of fact, almost 80% of government contractors do not generate adequate sales volume. A significant part of them never make a single government sale. Obviously, you don’t want to be a part of this cohort of unsuccessful vendors. 

    Being successful with your GSA contract means you have to invest resources into building your brand, marketing your products on the federal market, researching the market and competitors and much more. After the award, your success is not granted; you should work for it.

    Here are the main milestones to fulfill prior to getting a GSA Schedule:

    • Register your business. Legitimizing your company is a must if you are sure about penetrating the federal market. In addition to having a tax id, you also need to register at SAM.gov and receive a D.U.N.S. number.
    • You need to generate at least the minimum required revenue. Your company must bring in at least $100,000 in gross annual revenue. Otherwise, you have no chance entering the federal market.
    • Complete obligatory training. Yes, this is important. You must finish the obligatory courses before you can even register as a government contractor.
    • Train your personnel. Make sure everyone in your company understands what federal sales are about and how they should be treated.

    After your company is awarded, your success depends on your level of involvement. Here is what you should do consistently, in order to get into the top 20% of the most successful GSA contractors:

    • Monitor RFQ and RFP and place bids. Make fair and competitive offers to federal agencies. 
    • Conduct market and competition research to learn the most profitable niches and use your competitor’s weaknesses to your advantage.
    • Deploy an automated ordering system such as QuickBooks, Amazon, Oracle, or Price Reporter OMS. This allows you to automate order processing and management tasks, avoid mistakes, and provide better service to your federal customers.

    Who can order through GSA Schedules?

    GSA Multiple Award Schedule Program is a contract vehicle available to almost all federal agencies. This means that literally every federal agency can buy via GSA Schedules. Here is who can order through GSA Schedules:

    • Executive agencies and departments.
    • Eligible activities
    • Wholly owned government corporations
    • Mixed ownership government corporations
    • District of Columbia
    • The Senate and the House of Representatives

    How to order through GSA Schedules?

    Federal agencies procure goods and services through the GSA Schedules program. A number of federal acquisition platforms offer an ability to order various supplies, products and services through GSA Schedule. The most common are the GSA Advantage and GSA eBuy platforms.

    Federal buyers can order through GSA Schedules by placing an RFQ or RFP, or if the order is within the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, the buyer can simply place an order on the GSA Advantage to purchase services and products directly from commercial suppliers.

I fully recommend Price Reporter, Inc. to any company that is looking for assistance with their Government business endeavors. They were and have continued to be extremely helpful.

      Testimonials

      Price Reporter recently helped us with our 3rd GSA contract, the 2nd they did with us. It was the fastest we’ve ever been through the process with GSA. Each step was easy because the ground work was done before we were asked to do anything. Our pricing verification phase went smooth and quickly and both our contracts were accepted without rejection, with minimal negotiations with contracting.

      George McCullough, Director of Sales and Business Development, Darley
      Testimonials

      We first learned about the DOD EMALL a couple years ago from Price Reporter. We decided to move forward on it in 2016. I would recommend them based on the following items:

      • They split the payment. Half upfront and the other half is only charged should DOD EMALL contract be awarded to you.
      • Adding Price Reporter, specifically Andrey Karpov and Igor London, as agents on our GSA schedule streamlined the process. They were able to communicate with our GSA Contracting Officer to ensure that we received what we needed for DOD EMALL from GSA. This saved time on my end and sped up the process.
      • They provide a list of everything you need. Andrey and the rest of his team are meticulous and understand the process on how to get a DOD EMALL contract and thus we benefited from their expertise.

      These are a few of the reasons why I would recommend Price Reporter, Inc. Thank you!

      Testimonials

      For the past 10 years, Price Reporter has been providing us with exceptional service for the maintaining of our GSA office supplies contract. They have updated our files on a very timely basis. They have provided modifications when required. For a number of years, they had been giving us a price algorithm where each of our items were priced more than our cost and a penny below the next competitor. A very unique position that gave us thousands of government orders – that was prior to the GSA FSSI BPA.
      And for all the service given, their cost was far less than any other consulting firm that we had contacted or worked with over the years.
      I would highly recommend their service to any small business that is either interested in getting into the federal government arena or who wants to have their contract maintained at a most highly professional level.
      Thank you for supporting a VETERAN OWNED SMALL BUSINESS.

      We are extremely grateful for all your help in guiding us through the whole process, as this was all new to us. Without the help of you and the rest of the team at Price Reporter, it would have been impossible to achieve our approval – or at the very least – it would have taken a very long time. I would not hesitate to highly recommend Price Reporter, Inc. to anyone needing assistance in government contracts. Your knowledge and assistance was invaluable and very much appreciated, and we look forward to a continued excellent relationship.

      Testimonials

      Without Price Reporter contacting me at the right time, GSA would probably cancel my contract already. The CO said that she contacted us back in November of 2016, but got no response. Then Price Reporter called me and helped me with all the things needed and I followed his advise. That’s how we found out that our contract will be terminated soon, but had enough time to take the corrective action. The CO called us recently and it looks like they will extend our contract life. Thanks so much for your timely follow up – Price Reporter gave our Government sales a new hope!
