Procedures for obtaining a schedule are confusing and time consuming. Hiring a company to do the work for you will cost thousands and may not be within your company's budget.

Is there an simpler, less expensive solution? Yes!

The GSA Proposal Preparation eLab held monthly at the Federal Sales Academy in Bethesda, Maryland.

Come to our intensive proposal preparation laboratory and complete your GSA schedule proposal in 3 days or less.

GSA Schedules are quickly becoming the preferred vehicle of purchase for federal buyers. Vendors who have sold to the government for years are being strongly encouraged to obtain a schedule to ensure continued service to the Feds. Aggressive vendors new to the federal marketplace will benefit by entering with a schedule in hand.

Stop procrastinating; your competitors are GSA approved; if you want to level the playing field you need GSA approval to compete for federal contracts in 2006.

Description:

Fedmarket.com's GSA Proposal Preparation eLab is a three-day event held monthly in Bethesda, Maryland. Fedmarket.com developed the GSA eLab for those individuals who have been given the daunting responsibility for preparing their company's General Services Administration (GSA) offer. Our instructors will walk attendees through the offer preparation process and assist them in leaving the eLab with a completed GSA proposal.

Participants gain hands-on experience with the workings of GSA schedules.

This experience is invaluable for:

 * Negotiating with GSA concerning prices and terms and conditions.

 * Managing and administering schedules

 * Paying Industrial Funding Fees

 * Selling using schedules

Testimonials:

We are a small technology company, who until recently never considered attempting to enter the government business sector. By chance, we had previously been awarded two government contracts through open-source. On both occasions, our efforts working with the GSA were very challenging experiences. We decided early this year to look into obtaining approved GSA Schedules; found out about your company through a search engine and I attended the eLab in March.

I remember walking into the Federal Sales Academy classroom and meeting one of your team. They introduced themselves, and asked me which schedules I was there to apply for... and I had no clue. Obviously we would have been hard-pressed to apply for the GSA contract on our own.

We submitted our IT-70 solicitation the day after I left your seminar in late March and our contract was awarded two days ago (less than three months after submission). Our Contracting Officer even complimented us on a well-prepared package!

Our thanks to you and your staff (Laura Kiff, Eileen Kent and Beth White) for the intense and extremely valuable three days spent in Bethesda.

Best regards,

Charlie Latham

Albany Door Systems has just been awarded a Federal contract. I want to personally thank you and Fedmarket team for the very useful information provided in your seminars "GSA Schedules", as well as "Federal Sales". The information you provided in these seminars was both accurate and helpful in obtaining our industrial supply schedule 56 for our high performance door products. I also believe Fedmarket helped us expedite the process, we received our schedule in less than 5 months with few revisions because of your program. Thanks. Best Regards,

Bryan R. Wallace

I tried on and off for a year to complete the GSA solicitation on my own. The experts at Fedmarket took the time to understand my business and walked through the process of completing the solicitation in under 3 days. There is absolutely no way I could have completed the process without the Fedmarket team.
