Below you will see the DNA of a generic GSA Contract submission. Some of these documents are not required depending on if your company is products-based or services-based, however this list will illustrate the complexity of an offer.
You might ask if I am crazy for sharing this with potential clients that could use this to bring the process in-house. I would answer that the each document on this list has many specific difficulties and unforeseeable pit-falls, along with an overall process which is cloaked in complexity. Navigating these documents can feel like getting stuck in a M.C. Escher painting.
Therefore, I believe that this list will fully convince everyone that GSA Focus’ services are extremely valuable to any organization looking to grow their federal contracting resume. This comprehensive list of documents is from the GSA Contract: Full Service Plan page of the GSA Focus site.
