What is a GSA Schedule?

Purchasing from the GSA Schedule allows you to take advantage of the discounts that are not offered outside the GSA-user community. It streamlines your contracting process as you are able to benefit from the bidding, checking and selection work performed for you by the General Services Administration.  

Below is the excerpt form the GSA web page explaining the status of the companies who are awarded GSA Schedules:

“GSA awards contracts to all responsible companies that offer commercial items falling within the generic descriptions of the GSA Schedules. Contracting Officers determine that prices are fair and reasonable by comparing the prices or discounts that a company offers the government with the prices or discounts that the company offers to its own commercial customers. This negotiation objective is commonly known as "most favored customer" pricing. When orders are placed against a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract, using the procedures under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.4, they are considered to be issued using full and open competition (see FAR 6.102(d)(3)). Ordering offices need not seek further competition, synopsize the requirement, make a separate determination of fair and reasonable pricing, or consider small business programs. By placing an order against a GSA Schedule contract using the procedures in this section, the ordering office has concluded that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs, etc.) to meet the government's needs.”
