What's included
Every Product-Specific Requirement on Your Schedule
Each requirement below runs on its own rules. We manage all of them under one team.
GSA Advantage catalog management
We keep pricing, descriptions, and product data current across potentially hundreds of SKUs. A stale listing makes an active contract invisible to buyers.
Price reasonableness documentation
We build the commercial pricing documentation that supports your Schedule pricing for physical goods, the same documentation contracting officers ask for.
Minimum sales threshold tracking
We monitor your progress against the $100,000 base period and $125,000 option period minimums, well before renewal, not after.
One team for product compliance and catalog management
TAA documentation, catalog accuracy, and pricing review are not separate problems. We manage all three together, so a change in one does not create a gap in another.

Catalog Accuracy
Kept current so an active contract stays visible.
TAA non-compliance carries real financial risk
Misrepresenting a product's country of origin under TAA is not a minor paperwork error. It can lead to contract termination and False Claims Act exposure.
A stale catalog is functionally the same as no contract
Contracting officers skip listings with outdated pricing or missing product data. An inactive catalog makes a contract invisible to buyers, regardless of how good the products are.
Minimum sales thresholds are actively enforced
GSA's rightsizing initiative has already reduced the MAS contractor base by roughly 1,500 contracts in a single year (GSA SSQ+). Contracts that miss the base period minimum are not being renewed automatically.
Find out if your catalog is actually compliant
TAA issues and catalog gaps are easy to miss until a contracting officer flags them. We'll review what you're selling and tell you exactly where you stand.

GSA Schedule Contracts for Manufacturers & Distributors, answered directly
What is TAA compliance and why does it matter for GSA sales?
The Trade Agreements Act requires that products sold under a GSA Schedule be manufactured or substantially transformed in the US or a TAA-designated country. Non-compliant products cannot be listed, and misrepresenting origin can lead to contract termination or False Claims Act exposure.
How is TAA different from the Buy American Act?
TAA applies to GSA Schedule sales and most federal purchases above a set dollar threshold, and it allows sourcing from any TAA-designated country. The Buy American Act applies to different purchase types and has its own domestic content rules. The two are not interchangeable, and applying the wrong one to your products is a common and costly mistake.
How many products can I list on GSA Advantage?
There is no fixed cap tied to your contract type. The practical limit is how much catalog data you can keep accurate and current. Larger catalogs need someone actively maintaining pricing and product data as SKUs are added or discontinued.
What happens if a product I sell changes country of origin?
You need to update your Schedule pricelist and confirm continued TAA compliance before continuing to sell that product under your contract. Notify GSA if the change affects your offer.
