<p><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Are you ready to gain access to the government marketplace? </span><br>Without a GSA Schedule contract, your company is at a disadvantage. Why? Because purchases through GSA Schedule holders can be made quickly and efficiently with a minimal amount of hassle and paperwork. And when a quick purchase is made, the federal buyer's end user is happy. A happy end user means a happy buyer. </p>
<p><b>Where do you start?</b> <br>To become a GSA Schedule contractor, a vendor must first submit an offer or proposal in response to the appropriate GSA Schedule solicitation. A GSA Schedule proposal is a lengthy and complicated document. You can see for yourself by visiting <a href="http://www.fbo.gov">www.fbo.gov</a> and downloading the schedule solicitation that applies to the goods and/or services you intend to offer to the government. </p>
<p><b>Next step?</b> <br>Come to your senses; you can't do this alone. Take 3 days and immerse yourself in all things GSA at Fedmarket's <span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">GSA Proposal eLabPlus</span>.
