GSA Marketplace #1: GSA ADVANTAGE #
The online shopping & ordering system that fed buyers use to purchase from GSA contractors.
Anyone may browse on GSA Advantage! But only GSA Contractors can receive Purchase Orders from this system.
GSA Marketplace #2: GSA EBUY #
The GSA’s online Request for Quote (RFQ) tool, which facilitates RFQ’s
for products & services.
Only GSA Contract holders may view & pursue the opportunities in this exclusive system.
GSA Marketplace #3: GSA ELIBRARY #
The “Yellow Pages” that fed buyers use to locate and research GSA Contractors.
Often times, this is where a Government Purchase starts, and being on the short list in this initial stage is a huge advantage.
GSA Marketplace #4: REVERSE AUCTION #
Government buyers utilize the GSA’s Reverse Auction platform for non-complex purchases.
Only GSA Contract holders may view & pursue the opportunities in this exclusive system.
GSA Marketplace #5: FED BIZ OPPS #
The term “Open Market” refers to non-GSA opportunities, and mostly post to FBO.gov.
Many FBO.gov opportunities are still set-aside for GSA Contractors only.
These GSA Marketplaces combine to offer GSA Contract holders a massive advantage in the federal market: the opportunity to participate on a large number of bids that non-GSA companies do not have access to.
