GSA APPLICATION
PROCESSING
The US Government employs over 2.2 million people and has over 600 agencies, each with numerous locations and
offices throughout the country. They have mandated an expansion of Federal Government procurement programs
using small businesses, and the GSA plays an integral role in fast-tracking this process. The GSA is in need of vendors that
offer greater efficiency, better performance, better pricing, progressive technologies and delivery methods.
 
GSA is the General Services Administration, a division of the federal government that oversees federal spending.
A GSA Schedule is also referred to as a GSA Contract, a MAS (Multiple Award Schedule) Contract, and a FSS (Federal
Supply Schedule). Companies with GSA contracts are favored because it dramatically reduces acquisition lead-time
and creates increased efficiency for agencies. The GSA contract has pre-negotiated rates and prices, so proposals are
viewed as fair and reasonable. Additionally, purchases made with GSA schedule holders are considered to be “fully
competed on”, an important government requirement. A GSA contract is a powerful calling card.
 
A GSA proposal is comprised of numerous steps. The process is very intricate and includes 100+ pages of documents.
The government pays close attention to style, format, and professionalism. With our application processors, we
guarantee that our clients receive the utmost attention to detail to ensure proper and accurate application submission.

ONSITE GSA PROCESSING
The GSA application process consists of multiple sections, which we have broken down into stages within our processing
department to ensure accurate, complete and compliant submissions to GSA. Each section requires information and
supporting documentation, which clients are required to submit to our processing department for application
preparation.
Onsite GSA processing appointments are conveniently available at the client’s business location for those who request
face-to-face assistance with the acquisition and completion of the application documents. Our onsite GSA processing
appointments are a great way to ensure that the preparation of the documentation for the GSA application is
completed quickly and thoroughly, while on location with available client resources.
There are two onsite GSA processing options available to clients. Each save significant and valuable time in the GSA
application preparation process.
Full Onsite GSA Processing
A representative of our company will work with the client to fulfill all GSA application requirements for submission,
including pricing and technical proposals that are required. The process takes 3-5 business days. After completion of the
onsite GSA processing, there will be a final review process at our corporate office before we submit to GSA.
 
One-Day Onsite GSA Processing
A one-day onsite visit allows our representative to collect the documentation for the application that the client has
readily available at the time of the processors arrival and during their stay. Please remember that the GSA application
documents will not be complete after this onsite appointment. This appointment is only to assist with the acquisition of
information for the requirements of the GSA application. When we receive the collected paperwork at our corporate
processing headquarters, the Pricing Department and the Technical Writing Team may have additional required
documents to complete the application and may request more information from the client.

SAM REGISTRATION
ASSISTANCE
In 2003, a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) policy was published that required all federal contractors to register in
the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database, prior to the awarding of any federal contract or purchase
agreement.
In 2012, a plan to reduce government registration information redundancy was put into place, and the consolidated
System for Award Management (SAM) was designed. SAM combines the CCR, as well as eight other databases
(including FedReg, ORCA and EPLS) that aid in the management of Federal procurement. SAM Registration is required
for all federal contractors.
 
Services that we provide for SAM Registration:
•  Assistance with DUNs (Data Universal Numbering System) registration information and accuracy
•  CAGE Code Registration Assistance
•  Response to FARs
•  Funds Transfer Set-up
•  Compensation Disclosure
•  Disaster Relief Information
•  Amendments for registration
•  Place of Performance, Previous Awards and Compliance
•  Research to determine all NAICS, PSC and FSC codes which apply

STATE REGISTRATIONS
State buyers have a difficult time locating responsible vendors that are already properly registered to do business within
respective states with agencies.
When it comes to the Government Marketplace, one thing that is taken into consideration for the procuring of goods
and services is the localization of spending. For many government buyers 500 miles is a “close” proximity to do business.
The biggest misconception a business owner can have when it comes to the government market place is that if there is
not a government agency at the company doorstep, then there are no government agencies in the area. Nothing
could be further from the truth. Police departments, post offices, court buildings, these are just a few of the many
examples of agencies in each state and county, in addition to all the possible locations of government buildings in the
purchasing region.
Our State Registration service can open new revenue to businesses interested in contracting with the government. We
allow businesses to broaden exposure and receive available opportunities through our state registration program,
which allows receipt of opportunities all over the United States. We can complete the document preparation of any
and all state registrations for vendors who wish to do business with government agencies at the state level.
State Registration Services include:
•  System for Award Management (SAM) registration reviewed and assistance available
•  Registration applications for each state chosen, as long as client is qualified
•  Ability to review opportunities from individual states and the US Government

FEMA REGISTRATION
Over the past 30 years, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been called upon repeatedly to
become engaged, not only to deliver the traditional recovery programs, but also to coordinate the delivery of
emergency services and products—services and products such as search and rescue, emergency power, debris
clearance, emergency communications, emergency roofing, disaster housing, and other commodities to support State,
local, tribal and Federal incident response operations.
The failure to provide these services in a timely and coordinated manner with Federal, State, local and tribal partners
resulted in the criticism that FEMA received following incidents such as Hurricane Hugo (1989), Hurricane Andrew (1992),
and Hurricane Katrina (2005). In response to these experiences, FEMA altered its focus and organization in fundamental
ways.
During the 1990s, the organization reduced its emphasis on civil defense and prioritized the natural disaster response
system. FEMA gave greater attention to mitigation and preparedness as well. Following these efforts, FEMA’s scope and
responsibility increased in the mid-2000s through executive and legislative action.
As the Nation’s professional emergency management organization, FEMA continues to make a concerted effort to build,
sustain, and improve its ability to assist state and local governments by developing a preferred vendor contract to
expedite the delivery of these emergency services and products. Statutes and executive orders give FEMA the authority
to act without going to the open bid market in order to mitigate losses.
The industry liaison program was developed to assist state, local and federal governments in identifying and contacting
companies that are needed during any type of natural or man-made disaster. The program provides vendors and the
acquisition community to form an alliance that will assist with FEMA providing timely support to constituents impacted by
disaster by improved preparedness, protection, response, and recovery. The program is an entry point for those wanting
to do business with FEMA. Our services include the completion of all necessary documentation for the FEMA industry
liaison registration.

BUSINESS CERTIFICATION
APPLICATION ASSISTANCE
Business certifications will give members a competitive advantage when doing business with the government and
Corporate America. Procuring agencies have the authority to set acquisitions aside for businesses with these certifications.
Members will benefit from one or multiple certifications, based on their business plan. A certification specialist will provide
application assistance for federal, state and local government certifications, as well as national certifications.
The following are some of the certifications that will benefit eligible members:
 
8(a) Business Development Program (8a)
The 8(a) Business Development certification provides business assistance to small disadvantaged businesses. The program
is divided into two phases over nine years: 4-year developmental stage and 5-year transition stage. This is a business
development plan designated by the SBA to build disadvantaged small businesses with strategic resources (i.e. 8(a)
Mentor Protégé Program and others) over a 9-year period to compete with non-disadvantaged businesses at the
conclusion of their participation.
 
Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone)
The HUBZone certification helps small businesses in urban and rural communities, predetermined by the SBA to be located
within a Historically Underutilized Business Zone, gain preferential access to set-aside HUBZone procurement opportunities.
 
Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB)
The Women-Owned Small Business certification enables woman-owned small businesses to compete for federal
contracting opportunities set aside by procurement agencies for women-owned small businesses.
 
Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB)
The Economically-Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business certification enables women-owned small businesses
that are at an economic disadvantage to compete for federal contracting opportunities set aside by procurement
agencies for women-owned small businesses that are at an economic disadvantage.
 
Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB)
The Veteran-Owned Small and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business certifications give veterans a competitive
advantage with procurement opportunities that are set aside for veteran-owned and/or service-disabled veteran-owned
businesses.
 
Minority Business Enterprise (MBE)
The Minority Business Enterprise certification is a national certification that helps minority business owners compete for
procurement opportunities in corporate America. Major corporations and many state or local government entities
generally accept the certification. There are no small business size standards for this certification.
 
Women Business Enterprise (WBE)
The Women Business Enterprise certification is a national certification that helps women business owners compete for
procurement opportunities in corporate America. Major corporations and many state or local government entities
generally accept the certification. There are no small business size standards for this certification.

BID PROPOSAL SERVICES
 
The Proposal Services Department consists of a team of professional bid proposal developers possessing experience in
research, writing, process management, and (RFP/RFQ) proposal work. Individual proposal developers contribute their
own knowledge and expertise from various backgrounds inclusive of finance, contract procurement, DoD/U.S. Armed
Forces, business operations, journalism, and academia.
 
The Proposal Services Department’s sole purpose is to develop a compliant response to a solicitation, RFP or RFQ on
behalf of each of client. Every solicitation’s requirements are unique, and our team knows precisely what contracting
officers are looking for. Our knowledgeable proposal developers have encountered virtually every possible variable
and resulting outcome with respect to the process of building a proposal and gaining insight to the purchasing agent’s
evaluation process.
The bid proposal services include:
•  Proposal Writing Services
•  Opportunity Review & Analysis
•  Ability to increase the potential of a client receiving a positive response to proposals submitted for funding
•  Distinctive proposals setting you apart from your competitors
•  Complete and compliant responses to Requests for Quotes and Proposals (RFQ/RFP)
•  Development of a scheduled timeline, including a work breakdown strategy for each proposal
•  Insight on submissions and how to respond to additional requests from purchasing agents
Please allow up to 20 days for our professional proposal developers to build a compliant response to a solicitation.
Solicitation deadlines are established by the purchasing agents, and our team requires ample time to research, collect
supporting documentation, and prepare a compliant response to any solicitation prior to the published due date.
Proposal developers schedule to complete the proposal prior to solicitation deadlines, allowing clients to package and
submit proposals with time to spare.

CAPABILITIES STATEMENTS
Government contracting is competitive. Companies must market to key government purchasers to succeed in the
marketplace. Our professionals create capabilities statements for clients to use to market their business to the federal
government and beyond. The capabilities statement is a snapshot of a company with specific content that
government entities want to know, which serves as a resume for the business.
Capabilities statements are important, and at times, even required to compare a company with other vendors. Many
government agencies require capabilities statement to be submitted with bid proposals. Prime contractors may also
require potential subcontractors to submit capabilities statements before doing business with them.
 
The capabilities statement provides companies with a unique opportunity to explain core competencies and highlight
the value proposition offered.
 
Core competencies are a bundle of skills and technologies that enable a company to:
•  Provide a particular benefit to customers
•  Create a barrier of entry for competitors
•  Be leveraged to enter new markets
 
To build core competencies, analyze operations and determine what part of the business can deliver exceptional
results within short time frames. Clients can strengthen core competencies by partnering or licensing. If core
competencies are gained by partnering or licensing, integrate those capabilities in the statement to create an
advantage over the competition.
The capabilities statement includes information that sets a business apart from competitors, describing products and/or
services, qualifications, credentials, differentiators and unique corporate data. A capabilities statement is a critical tool
in government contracting, no matter what size company is represented.
Our professionals will develop a capabilities statement, with provided information, to leverage a business over
competitors, providing tools and strategies to help in the highly competitive government marketing arena.

GSA CONTRACT
SERVICES
FOR GSA CONTRACT HOLDERS ONLY
GSA UPLOADS TO
GSAADVANTAGE!®
 
 
GSAAdvantage!® is the shopping mall for the Government!
 
GSAAdvantage!® (http://www.GSAadvantage.gov) is where the Federal Government goes to browse GSA holders’ on-
line catalogs, contact information, and the terms and conditions of a schedule contract.
 
GSAAdvantage!® gives Federal purchasers the ability to shop around, make comparisons, and order products and
services in just minutes. Once awarded products and/or services are uploaded to the GSAAdvantage!® website, a
buyer searches for an industry’s products or services and those product/services will be found. The buyer can then
purchase them with a click of a button.
Many GSA holders do not realize this is a requirement and fail to complete this step. If those products/services are not
uploaded, the buyers will not know that they are offered, and they will buy from the other companies whose products
and services are advertised on the website.
 
Once a business is awarded a GSA schedule, it is required by GSA to upload awarded products and/or services to the
GSAAdvantage! ® website within 6 months. After 6 months of award, if the upload is not complete, the GSA holder may
be in noncompliance, which can result in fines, or eventually, a loss of the contract.
Our professionals are experienced to complete uploads for GSA compliance and approval. The process can be
completed with ease, especially if we assisted with the company’s actual GSA application process. Those companies
not previously processed by our professionals, can supply the GSA awarded supporting documentations to our
processing team and have the upload completed as well.
page 22
GSA eBUY MONITORING
Once the GSA schedule contract upload is complete on GSAAdvantage!®, the contract administrator will be
simultaneously registered on eBuy, GSA’s online Request for Quotes (RFQ) solution. The eBuy system allows the contract
administrator to select criteria for receipt of RFQ notices.
GSA eBuy is designed to facilitate the request for and submission of quotes or proposals for commercial products,
services, and solutions offered through GSA Federal Supply Schedules and Government-wide Acquisition Contracts
(GWACs).
 
Using the eBuy system, Federal buyers (purchasers) may prepare and post RFQs/RFPs for specific products and services
for a specified period of time. Once posted, contractors (sellers) may review the request and post a response. This
program is exclusive to GSA schedule contract holders and offers an effective marketing opportunity for doing business
with the government.
 
Our GSA eBuy monitoring service ensures clients don’t miss valuable opportunities to respond to RFQs/RFPs that relate
to specific capabilities. By allowing us to monitoring the eBuy system, we narrow the search parameters and present
only relevant opportunities to clients for consideration. We are able to weed out requests that a business does not
qualify for, and put clients in touch with the point of contact for the ones that do. One of our dedicated account
managers will work to review various opportunities as they become available on the eBuy portal.

GSA IFF QUARTERLY
REPORTING
GSA schedule contract holders are required to report contract sales to the General Services Administration on a
quarterly basis throughout the duration of the GSA contract. Contractors must report the contract sales within 30 days
of each quarter end, even if no sales were made through the contract.
Industrial Funding Fee (IFF)
GSA introduced the Industrial Funding Fee (IFF) requirement in April of 1995. The IFF is a fee paid by customers to cover
GSA’s cost of operating the Federal Supply Schedules program. The fee is a percentage of reported sales under
schedule contracts. The fee is included in the price customer agencies pay the contractor when they purchase items
under a MAS. The contractor remits the IFF due to GSA in the quarterly reporting. The IFF rate is set by the Commissioner
of Federal Acquisition Service and is reviewed periodically.
GSA Quarters
•  1st Quarter: January 1 through March 31
•  2nd Quarter: April 1 through June 30
•  3rd Quarter: July 1 through September 30
•  4th Quarter: October 1 through December 31
We can complete the reports of our clients. Our specialists will perform the quarterly IFF reporting, meeting requirements
within the GSA reporting system. Quarterly sales information and payment of any fees will be requested of the client.

GSA MODIFICATIONS &
GSA RENEWALS
GSA Modifications
A GSA holder may need to submit a GSA modification if they are already on a schedule and would like to revise details
of the GSA schedule contract.
GSA schedule holders may conduct modifications to:
 
•  Add or remove a negotiator
•  Update point of contact information
•  Edit Terms and Conditions
•  Add, remove or adjust products and/or services
•  Increase or decrease prices on products and/or services
Schedule holders may modify the contract to increase prices. The number of adjustments allowed per year is limited by
the type of schedule.. Some schedule holders may adjust prices every year. The economic price adjustment allows
schedule holders to alter prices by as much as 2-4% as long as proof is provided that can show that prices raised for
commercial clients.
 
The GSA may also make changes to the terms and conditions of a schedule (usually to the benefit of the vendor)
requiring the GSA holder to comply with any requested information and modify their schedule accordingly.
Some modifications require information to be uploaded for approval by GSA. Our specialists are available to perform
the uploads for an additional fee.
 
GSA Renewals
GSA contracts expire after 5 years.
GSA holders have an option to renew the GSA MAS contract up to 3 times, for a total length of 20 years.
FSS contracts (medical schedules) can only be renewed up to 10 years.
Several months before a contract expires, it is required to submit revised pricing, commercial sales practices and
related certifications if a business is renewing their contract with GSA.
 
If a GSA contract is not renewed before it expires, a brand new GSA proposal application must be submitted to GSA,
and it could take up to a year before a new contract is awarded. If a business is re-awarded, a new contract number
will be issued. This will require the client to re-establish the company with the federal buyers they have worked with. A
renewal is quicker and easier than starting from the beginning.

  • 3. GSA APPLICATION PROCESSING The US Government employs over 2.2 million people and has over 600 agencies, each with numerous locations and offices throughout the country. They have mandated an expansion of Federal Government procurement programs using small businesses, and the GSA plays an integral role in fast-tracking this process. The GSA is in need of vendors that offer greater efficiency, better performance, better pricing, progressive technologies and delivery methods.   GSA is the General Services Administration, a division of the federal government that oversees federal spending. A GSA Schedule is also referred to as a GSA Contract, a MAS (Multiple Award Schedule) Contract, and a FSS (Federal Supply Schedule). Companies with GSA contracts are favored because it dramatically reduces acquisition lead-time and creates increased efficiency for agencies. The GSA contract has pre-negotiated rates and prices, so proposals are viewed as fair and reasonable. Additionally, purchases made with GSA schedule holders are considered to be “fully competed on”, an important government requirement. A GSA contract is a powerful calling card.   A GSA proposal is comprised of numerous steps. The process is very intricate and includes 100+ pages of documents. The government pays close attention to style, format, and professionalism. With our application processors, we guarantee that our clients receive the utmost attention to detail to ensure proper and accurate application submission.   We are the biggest GSA application processing company in the world. •  GSA approves an average of 40 GSA awards per week. •  We average 10 of the 40 GSA awards per week. •  Our team has assisted in over 1500 GSA awards. •  On average, our clients have increased their revenue by $200,000.   Services that we provide to all of our GSA Applicants: •  Research to determine all NAICS, PSC and FSC codes which apply to the clients firm •  Assistance with SAM registration that is mandatory for Government Contractors •  Determination of the most advantageous Federal Supply Schedule •  Gathering information to support price negotiations •  Review of all applicable FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) and CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) clauses included in the proposal •  Preparation of all applicable forms, including Representations and Certifications and Technical Proposals required •  Preparation, via templates, of a Small Business Subcontracting Plan as required •  Research to insure compliance with JWOD requirements where applicable •  Preparation of a proposed Schedule Price List with supporting documentation •  Preparation of Commercial Sales Practice (CSP-1) disclosure and price support documentation •  Delivery of the completed Proposal to the GSA and monitoring of Proposal Status •  Response to GSA requests for Clarifications and Revisions •  Conducting negotiations with GSA’s assigned Contract Officer / Contract Specialist •  Preparation of the Final Proposal Revision at the close of negotiations •  Post award instruction to facilitate marketing to the Federal Government Page 3
  • 4. ONSITE GSA PROCESSING The GSA application process consists of multiple sections, which we have broken down into stages within our processing department to ensure accurate, complete and compliant submissions to GSA. Each section requires information and supporting documentation, which clients are required to submit to our processing department for application preparation. Onsite GSA processing appointments are conveniently available at the client’s business location for those who request face-to-face assistance with the acquisition and completion of the application documents. Our onsite GSA processing appointments are a great way to ensure that the preparation of the documentation for the GSA application is completed quickly and thoroughly, while on location with available client resources. There are two onsite GSA processing options available to clients. Each save significant and valuable time in the GSA application preparation process. Full Onsite GSA Processing A representative of our company will work with the client to fulfill all GSA application requirements for submission, including pricing and technical proposals that are required. The process takes 3-5 business days. After completion of the onsite GSA processing, there will be a final review process at our corporate office before we submit to GSA.   One-Day Onsite GSA Processing A one-day onsite visit allows our representative to collect the documentation for the application that the client has readily available at the time of the processors arrival and during their stay. Please remember that the GSA application documents will not be complete after this onsite appointment. This appointment is only to assist with the acquisition of information for the requirements of the GSA application. When we receive the collected paperwork at our corporate processing headquarters, the Pricing Department and the Technical Writing Team may have additional required documents to complete the application and may request more information from the client. page 4
  • 5. WINBIDSPRO DATABASE The Winbidspro database provides a powerful combination of customized bid and marketing opportunities for federal, state and local government agencies.   Professional customer service representatives will customize opportunity criteria searches for subscribed clients, generating available, industry-specific business opportunity lists. The representative will assist in further refining search requirements to match any business objectives.   Active database subscribers will receive bid opportunities delivered by email daily during business hours between 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. EST Monday through Friday. Solicitations come from all Government agencies, as well as all 50 States, and even some from overseas. The Winbidspro database gives access to:   Ø  A Directory of all Government activities Ø  Technical data including 600,000 sets of drawings Ø  Last prices paid back to 1961 Ø  A Database of 800,000 companies (610,000 emails) filtered by: •  Keyword •  NAICS •  Federal Supply Group •  Professional Service Class Ø  A Database of all procurement officials filtered by: •  NAICS bought •  Zip •  Agency •  Federal Supply Group •  Professional Service Class Ø  Expiring contracts for proactive opportunities filtered by: •  NAICS Availability •  Key Words •  Service code Ø  Research Competitor’s Contract Award History Ø  Locate ALL Purchasing Agents within specific geographic areas: •  Who they are buying from •  What prices they are paying •  How often they are buying page 5
  • 6. INDUSTRY REPORTS Our industry reports identify the agencies that buy products and services for all aspects of government business. The reports allow access to see which agencies are spending money in any industry, who they are buying from, how often they are purchasing, as well as how much they are spending. Each report is generated using a client’s NAICS (North American Identification Classification System) codes. All industry reports include four separate reports per NAICS code.   Ø  Expiring Contracts Reports include: •  Forecasted expiring contracts through the next five years •  Expiration dates •  Dollar amounts •  Contract numbers •  Contracting officers •  Competitor information   Ø  Business and Marketing Plan Reports include: •  Years of Industry-specific data •  Last year •  This year •  Forecasting data for the next five years •  Total Government figures •  Money spent •  Number of bids •  Expiring contracts   Ø  Contracting Officers Reports include: •  Contracting officers who acquire products and services •  Agency contacts •  Email addresses •  Phone numbers   Ø  Competitive Analysis Reports include: •  Industry-specific networking contacts •  Government contractors •  Potential teaming partners •  Competitors •  Detailed Company Information •  Company contacts •  Email addresses •  Phone numbers •  Fax numbers •  Addresses •  CAGE Codes Page 6
  • 7. SAM REGISTRATION ASSISTANCE In 2003, a Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) policy was published that required all federal contractors to register in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database, prior to the awarding of any federal contract or purchase agreement. In 2012, a plan to reduce government registration information redundancy was put into place, and the consolidated System for Award Management (SAM) was designed. SAM combines the CCR, as well as eight other databases (including FedReg, ORCA and EPLS) that aid in the management of Federal procurement. SAM Registration is required for all federal contractors.   Services that we provide for SAM Registration: •  Assistance with DUNs (Data Universal Numbering System) registration information and accuracy •  CAGE Code Registration Assistance •  Response to FARs •  Funds Transfer Set-up •  Compensation Disclosure •  Disaster Relief Information •  Amendments for registration •  Place of Performance, Previous Awards and Compliance •  Research to determine all NAICS, PSC and FSC codes which apply Page 7
  • 8. STATE REGISTRATIONS State buyers have a difficult time locating responsible vendors that are already properly registered to do business within respective states with agencies. When it comes to the Government Marketplace, one thing that is taken into consideration for the procuring of goods and services is the localization of spending. For many government buyers 500 miles is a “close” proximity to do business. The biggest misconception a business owner can have when it comes to the government market place is that if there is not a government agency at the company doorstep, then there are no government agencies in the area. Nothing could be further from the truth. Police departments, post offices, court buildings, these are just a few of the many examples of agencies in each state and county, in addition to all the possible locations of government buildings in the purchasing region. Our State Registration service can open new revenue to businesses interested in contracting with the government. We allow businesses to broaden exposure and receive available opportunities through our state registration program, which allows receipt of opportunities all over the United States. We can complete the document preparation of any and all state registrations for vendors who wish to do business with government agencies at the state level. State Registration Services include: •  System for Award Management (SAM) registration reviewed and assistance available •  Registration applications for each state chosen, as long as client is qualified •  Ability to review opportunities from individual states and the US Government page 8
  • 9. FEMA REGISTRATION Over the past 30 years, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has been called upon repeatedly to become engaged, not only to deliver the traditional recovery programs, but also to coordinate the delivery of emergency services and products—services and products such as search and rescue, emergency power, debris clearance, emergency communications, emergency roofing, disaster housing, and other commodities to support State, local, tribal and Federal incident response operations. The failure to provide these services in a timely and coordinated manner with Federal, State, local and tribal partners resulted in the criticism that FEMA received following incidents such as Hurricane Hugo (1989), Hurricane Andrew (1992), and Hurricane Katrina (2005). In response to these experiences, FEMA altered its focus and organization in fundamental ways. During the 1990s, the organization reduced its emphasis on civil defense and prioritized the natural disaster response system. FEMA gave greater attention to mitigation and preparedness as well. Following these efforts, FEMA’s scope and responsibility increased in the mid-2000s through executive and legislative action. As the Nation’s professional emergency management organization, FEMA continues to make a concerted effort to build, sustain, and improve its ability to assist state and local governments by developing a preferred vendor contract to expedite the delivery of these emergency services and products. Statutes and executive orders give FEMA the authority to act without going to the open bid market in order to mitigate losses. The industry liaison program was developed to assist state, local and federal governments in identifying and contacting companies that are needed during any type of natural or man-made disaster. The program provides vendors and the acquisition community to form an alliance that will assist with FEMA providing timely support to constituents impacted by disaster by improved preparedness, protection, response, and recovery. The program is an entry point for those wanting to do business with FEMA. Our services include the completion of all necessary documentation for the FEMA industry liaison registration. Page 9
  • 10. BUSINESS CERTIFICATION APPLICATION ASSISTANCE Business certifications will give members a competitive advantage when doing business with the government and Corporate America. Procuring agencies have the authority to set acquisitions aside for businesses with these certifications. Members will benefit from one or multiple certifications, based on their business plan. A certification specialist will provide application assistance for federal, state and local government certifications, as well as national certifications. The following are some of the certifications that will benefit eligible members:   8(a) Business Development Program (8a) The 8(a) Business Development certification provides business assistance to small disadvantaged businesses. The program is divided into two phases over nine years: 4-year developmental stage and 5-year transition stage. This is a business development plan designated by the SBA to build disadvantaged small businesses with strategic resources (i.e. 8(a) Mentor Protégé Program and others) over a 9-year period to compete with non-disadvantaged businesses at the conclusion of their participation.   Historically Underutilized Business Zones (HUBZone) The HUBZone certification helps small businesses in urban and rural communities, predetermined by the SBA to be located within a Historically Underutilized Business Zone, gain preferential access to set-aside HUBZone procurement opportunities.   Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) The Women-Owned Small Business certification enables woman-owned small businesses to compete for federal contracting opportunities set aside by procurement agencies for women-owned small businesses.   Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB) The Economically-Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business certification enables women-owned small businesses that are at an economic disadvantage to compete for federal contracting opportunities set aside by procurement agencies for women-owned small businesses that are at an economic disadvantage.   Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) The Veteran-Owned Small and Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business certifications give veterans a competitive advantage with procurement opportunities that are set aside for veteran-owned and/or service-disabled veteran-owned businesses.   Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) The Minority Business Enterprise certification is a national certification that helps minority business owners compete for procurement opportunities in corporate America. Major corporations and many state or local government entities generally accept the certification. There are no small business size standards for this certification.   Women Business Enterprise (WBE) The Women Business Enterprise certification is a national certification that helps women business owners compete for procurement opportunities in corporate America. Major corporations and many state or local government entities generally accept the certification. There are no small business size standards for this certification. Page 10

  • 12. CAPABILITIES STATEMENTS Government contracting is competitive. Companies must market to key government purchasers to succeed in the marketplace. Our professionals create capabilities statements for clients to use to market their business to the federal government and beyond. The capabilities statement is a snapshot of a company with specific content that government entities want to know, which serves as a resume for the business. Capabilities statements are important, and at times, even required to compare a company with other vendors. Many government agencies require capabilities statement to be submitted with bid proposals. Prime contractors may also require potential subcontractors to submit capabilities statements before doing business with them.   The capabilities statement provides companies with a unique opportunity to explain core competencies and highlight the value proposition offered.   Core competencies are a bundle of skills and technologies that enable a company to: •  Provide a particular benefit to customers •  Create a barrier of entry for competitors •  Be leveraged to enter new markets   To build core competencies, analyze operations and determine what part of the business can deliver exceptional results within short time frames. Clients can strengthen core competencies by partnering or licensing. If core competencies are gained by partnering or licensing, integrate those capabilities in the statement to create an advantage over the competition. The capabilities statement includes information that sets a business apart from competitors, describing products and/or services, qualifications, credentials, differentiators and unique corporate data. A capabilities statement is a critical tool in government contracting, no matter what size company is represented. Our professionals will develop a capabilities statement, with provided information, to leverage a business over competitors, providing tools and strategies to help in the highly competitive government marketing arena.

  • 21. GSA CONTRACT SERVICES FOR GSA CONTRACT HOLDERS ONLY
  • 22. GSA UPLOADS TO GSAADVANTAGE!®     GSAAdvantage!® is the shopping mall for the Government!   GSAAdvantage!® (http://www.GSAadvantage.gov) is where the Federal Government goes to browse GSA holders’ on- line catalogs, contact information, and the terms and conditions of a schedule contract.   GSAAdvantage!® gives Federal purchasers the ability to shop around, make comparisons, and order products and services in just minutes. Once awarded products and/or services are uploaded to the GSAAdvantage!® website, a buyer searches for an industry’s products or services and those product/services will be found. The buyer can then purchase them with a click of a button. Many GSA holders do not realize this is a requirement and fail to complete this step. If those products/services are not uploaded, the buyers will not know that they are offered, and they will buy from the other companies whose products and services are advertised on the website.   Once a business is awarded a GSA schedule, it is required by GSA to upload awarded products and/or services to the GSAAdvantage! ® website within 6 months. After 6 months of award, if the upload is not complete, the GSA holder may be in noncompliance, which can result in fines, or eventually, a loss of the contract. Our professionals are experienced to complete uploads for GSA compliance and approval. The process can be completed with ease, especially if we assisted with the company’s actual GSA application process. Those companies not previously processed by our professionals, can supply the GSA awarded supporting documentations to our processing team and have the upload completed as well. page 22
  • 23. GSA eBUY MONITORING Once the GSA schedule contract upload is complete on GSAAdvantage!®, the contract administrator will be simultaneously registered on eBuy, GSA’s online Request for Quotes (RFQ) solution. The eBuy system allows the contract administrator to select criteria for receipt of RFQ notices. GSA eBuy is designed to facilitate the request for and submission of quotes or proposals for commercial products, services, and solutions offered through GSA Federal Supply Schedules and Government-wide Acquisition Contracts (GWACs).   Using the eBuy system, Federal buyers (purchasers) may prepare and post RFQs/RFPs for specific products and services for a specified period of time. Once posted, contractors (sellers) may review the request and post a response. This program is exclusive to GSA schedule contract holders and offers an effective marketing opportunity for doing business with the government.   Our GSA eBuy monitoring service ensures clients don’t miss valuable opportunities to respond to RFQs/RFPs that relate to specific capabilities. By allowing us to monitoring the eBuy system, we narrow the search parameters and present only relevant opportunities to clients for consideration. We are able to weed out requests that a business does not qualify for, and put clients in touch with the point of contact for the ones that do. One of our dedicated account managers will work to review various opportunities as they become available on the eBuy portal. page 23
  • 24. GSA IFF QUARTERLY REPORTING GSA schedule contract holders are required to report contract sales to the General Services Administration on a quarterly basis throughout the duration of the GSA contract. Contractors must report the contract sales within 30 days of each quarter end, even if no sales were made through the contract. Industrial Funding Fee (IFF) GSA introduced the Industrial Funding Fee (IFF) requirement in April of 1995. The IFF is a fee paid by customers to cover GSA’s cost of operating the Federal Supply Schedules program. The fee is a percentage of reported sales under schedule contracts. The fee is included in the price customer agencies pay the contractor when they purchase items under a MAS. The contractor remits the IFF due to GSA in the quarterly reporting. The IFF rate is set by the Commissioner of Federal Acquisition Service and is reviewed periodically. GSA Quarters •  1st Quarter: January 1 through March 31 •  2nd Quarter: April 1 through June 30 •  3rd Quarter: July 1 through September 30 •  4th Quarter: October 1 through December 31 We can complete the reports of our clients. Our specialists will perform the quarterly IFF reporting, meeting requirements within the GSA reporting system. Quarterly sales information and payment of any fees will be requested of the client. page 24
  • 25. GSA MODIFICATIONS & GSA RENEWALS GSA Modifications A GSA holder may need to submit a GSA modification if they are already on a schedule and would like to revise details of the GSA schedule contract. GSA schedule holders may conduct modifications to:   •  Add or remove a negotiator •  Update point of contact information •  Edit Terms and Conditions •  Add, remove or adjust products and/or services •  Increase or decrease prices on products and/or services Schedule holders may modify the contract to increase prices. The number of adjustments allowed per year is limited by the type of schedule.. Some schedule holders may adjust prices every year. The economic price adjustment allows schedule holders to alter prices by as much as 2-4% as long as proof is provided that can show that prices raised for commercial clients.   The GSA may also make changes to the terms and conditions of a schedule (usually to the benefit of the vendor) requiring the GSA holder to comply with any requested information and modify their schedule accordingly. Some modifications require information to be uploaded for approval by GSA. Our specialists are available to perform the uploads for an additional fee.   GSA Renewals GSA contracts expire after 5 years. GSA holders have an option to renew the GSA MAS contract up to 3 times, for a total length of 20 years. FSS contracts (medical schedules) can only be renewed up to 10 years. Several months before a contract expires, it is required to submit revised pricing, commercial sales practices and related certifications if a business is renewing their contract with GSA.   If a GSA contract is not renewed before it expires, a brand new GSA proposal application must be submitted to GSA, and it could take up to a year before a new contract is awarded. If a business is re-awarded, a new contract number will be issued. This will require the client to re-establish the company with the federal buyers they have worked with. A renewal is quicker and easier than starting from the beginning. page 25
