    What is GSA Office Management Category

    This large category under the Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Consolidated Schedule encompasses various products, services and solutions that the federal agencies require to maintain workplaces functional and convenient, simplify everyday office tasks, and reduce operational costs.

    Overall sales under the Office Management Category in 2019 as reported by GSA contract holder companies, exceeded $1 billion. That’s a huge amount. And what’s even more exciting is that there are merely about 500+ contractors in this MAS category. This means that on average a contractor does over $2 million in sales through a GSA Office Management contract.

    Taking into account extremely high budgets of the Office Management contracts, no wonder many companies are dreaming of being awarded within this category. Based on our past experience, legacy schedules were also among the most popular and profitable GSA Schedules.

    The attractiveness of the GSA Office Management contracts is heavily based on the fact that almost all federal, state, and local agencies need office supplies and services regularly. Among the major purchasers in this category are the Veteran Affairs, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice, the Army, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the U.S. Department of Treasury.

    Summarizing, the GSA Office Management Large Category contract is relatively low-competition, big clients, and a profitable GSA contract.

    Legacy Schedules that were replaced by the Office Management Category

    The GSA Office Management Large Category replaces four legacy Schedules:

    • GSA Schedule 75 – Office Products/Supplies and Services
    • GSA Schedule 36 – Solicitation of Office, Imaging and Document Solutions
    • GSA Schedule 76 – Publication Media
    • GSA Schedule 58I – Professional Audio/Video Telemetry and Tracking

    Not all SINs from the above legacy Schedules were transferred. During the MAS Consolidation procedure, the GSA aimed to develop a simpler and more straightforward Multiple Award Schedule. The resulting classification is designed to be more logical, so some SINs from legacy Office Management Schedules were rearranged to other categories that seemed more appropriate to them.

    If your company previously held one or more of the above legacy Schedules, the Office Management Category under the new MAS Schedule would now govern them. 

     HOW TO GET A GSA OFFICE SUPPLY SCHEDULE (75)?

    Overall, winning a GSA Office Management contract requires serious initial preparation and a lot of work. More than 80% of applications are declined due to various mistakes or discrepancies in the application documents and forms, or because the vendor failed to meet the GSA contract requirements.

    In order to simplify getting a GSA Office Management contract, you need to follow these general steps:

    • Prepare all necessary documents. Download the Office Management Contract solicitation to learn what exact documents are required. The GSA requires a total of about 30 documents including financial statements, price lists and price narrative, technical specifications, compliance reports, past performance reports, a number of standard forms and so on. Then, submit the documents to GSA.
    • GSA reviews your submission. After you submit your document package via the GSA eOffer service, a GSA contracting officer is assigned to your submission. He or she will review your application and get back to you if necessary, either to clarify certain parts of the document package, or to request some other information that your application is missing.
    • Price and conditions negotiation. After your application is reviewed and approved, the GSA procurement officer will contact you to negotiate terms and conditions of your offer as well as special discounts or prices. Creating a winning, yet still profitable price proposal is an art, because the government always wants better discounts even if your offer is already the most affordable on the market. Offer too much, and you will end up under a disadvantageous contract.
    • Award and post-award. When everything is settled, the GSA Schedule contract is awarded. You will be able to publish your offers on GSA e-commerce platforms including GSA Advantage! and GSA eBuy, respond to bids and receive opportunities. Needless to say, the work is not over yet. In fact, your success on the federal market is 99% determined by your ability to continue maintaining your contract, updating the catalog, marketing, and communicating with procurement officers.

      The B. David Company enlisted the services of Price Reporter, Inc. to setup our DOD EMALL account. We are a second generation family owned company and were uncertain what would be required to complete this task. 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. We will continue to rely on Price Reporter, Inc. for future projects.

      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 looked around for a reputable company to help us acquire a GSA contract for Muzeek World Intl., Inc. After looking around we were unsuccessful in finding a good company.

I highly recommend Price Reporter to anyone looking for help in acquiring a GSA contract or any Government business dealings. They have the expertise and the know-how to get the work completed.

      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!
