This webinar is designed for business owners, business development professionals, and contracting teams who are considering whether a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract is the right path for their organization.

The GSA MAS program is a major federal contracting vehicle that gives businesses access to long-term, government-wide contracts. However, qualifying and applying for a schedule requires time, resources, and a clear understanding of federal procurement rules. This session provides a practical overview of the program and helps businesses determine if it’s a good strategic fit.

What You Will Learn:

  1. What the GSA MAS Schedule is, how it works, and who uses it

  2. The benefits and challenges of holding a GSA Schedule

3.The eligibility requirements and application process

  1. Key indicators that a business is ready—or not yet ready—to apply

  2. Alternatives to a GSA Schedule, including subcontracting and teaming arrangements

Why This Matters:

Pursuing a GSA Schedule can be a major investment. Understanding how the program works and whether your business is a strong candidate can help you avoid unnecessary delays, reduce risk, and focus your government sales strategy.

How This Information Can Be Used:

Attendees will be able to:

  1. Evaluate whether a GSA Schedule aligns with their federal sales goals

  2. Prepare for the application process or decide to delay it until they’re better positioned

  3. Explore alternative ways to participate in the federal market

Target Audience: Small to mid-sized businesses considering federal contracting, including:

  1. Business owners, founders, or executives

  2. Business development and sales professionals targeting the public sector

  3. Companies with some experience bidding on federal work (or interest in doing so), but not yet on the MAS schedule

  4. Proposal managers or contract administrators new to GSA schedules
