-
Does a firm have to be certified as a small business by the Small Business Administration (SBA) in order to benefit from GSA's Small Business Program?
Small business status is a self-certification process. The self-certification process is also used for certification as a women-owned or a veteran-owned business. However, the process for certification as a small disadvantaged business, 8(a) or a business within a HUBZone is different. To attain status, SBA must certify you: Small Business -- Self-certification, 8(a) firms -- Certification by SBA, SDB -- Certification by SBA*, Women-owned -- Self-certification, HUBZone -- Certification by SBA, Veteran-owned -- Self-certification, Service-Disabled -- Self-certification.
-
Will being on a GSA Schedule benefit my company?
Being on a Schedule does not guarantee an order. However, Schedules can generate substantial orders for firms that actively market their products or services.

Yes, if you have more than one product or service to sell.
-
How can I find simplified acquisition contracting opportunities at GSA?
Procurement under $25,000 will require you to do research and engage in direct marketing.
-
Is it necessary that I have electronic commerce/electronic data interchange (EC/ED) capability to do business with GSA?
Yes. We pay vendors electronically and, in some cases, require contractors to provide electronic catalogues.
