<p>In the race to win government contracts, a GSA Schedule holder has an advantage. GSA contracts are the most effective way for companies new to the market to compete for federal prime dollars. </p>
<p>GSA Schedules are multiple award contracts that provide the vendors with federally-approved price lists. Both vendors and federal buyers have made using Schedule contracts the preferred way to conduct government business. </p>
<p>The Schedules program is open to all businesses, from small to large, and the program is fairly comprehensive. </p>
<p>Furthermore, a company's GSA Schedule proposal can be submitted to GSA at any time (unlike other multiple award schedules that can be submitted during a prescribed period of time). </p>
<p><b>By obtaining a GSA Schedule, you benefit by: </b></p>
<ul>
<li>Reducing the competition while staying within the rules
</li><li>Avoiding responding to a public bid and saving vast sums of money that would otherwise have been spent writing a proposal
</li><li>Closing deals within weeks instead of a countless number of months
</li><li>Closing deals with any federal buyer who prefers to use a GSA Schedule contract</li></ul>
<p><b>Federal buyers pass over vendors who are not GSA Schedule holders on almost a daily basis. </b><br></p>
