<p><b>GSA Schedules are the grandfather of all IDIQs.
</b></p><ul><li> They are open to small businesses.
</li><li> A services company can be virtually assured of obtaining a GSA contract if it can demonstrate its capabilities, has solid financial statements, and is willing to negotiate prices.
</li><li> GSA Schedules are usually 20-year contracts; an initial five-year contract followed by three five-year options.
</li><li> Federal buyers like to purchase from GSA Schedule holders because buys can be made quickly with a minimum of paperwork.</li></ul>
