OLMs are purchased under the authority of the FSS Program and are not “open market items.” Can be used for up to 1/3 of contract value. |

| The Professional Services Schedule is a streamlined procurement vehicle for federal agencies and entities and some state and local governments to obtain professional services from vendors that have been pre-qualified by GSA. Mandated contracting requirements -- competition, pricing, small business rules, etc. - have already been completed.

Ordering
Procedures in Brief (Detailed ordering guidelines are found in Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.4. See also the GSA Buyer's Guide
(e-Buy for Buyers)
presentation for a step-by-step overview. These are summarized below..
|
Under the $10,000 (increased to $20,000 under the emergency declaration) Micro-purchase Threshold:
• Prepare a Statement of Work (SOW). The Contract Officer (CO) or GSA micro-purchase cardholders may order from any schedule contractor deemed to be fair and reasonable. Competitive bids are not needed. This may be useful for unplanned trips or unplanned work where a 5 minute credit card payment is more efficient than doing a contract mod. The link below is active and allows immediate purchase. Just send us an email to ensure we know your wishes. We can have someone working within a couple hours. |
|
Over the Micro-purchase Threshold, but under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold $250,000(increased to $750,000 under the emergency declaration):
- Program Staff provide the Contract Officer (CO) with a SOW including a description of the work
required, a schedule, and the location for delivery and inspection of the work.
- Consider reasonably available information about the supply or service offered under GSA MAS contracts by surveying at least three schedule contractors (but only one bid needs to be submitted) through the GSA Advantage! on-line shopping service, by reviewing the catalogs or pricelists of at least three schedule contractors, or by requesting quotations from at least three schedule contractors.
- When a
buyer, such as a program official, does not have authority to make an award,
they can forward the RFQ, with the quotes received, to the CO so the award can be made quickly using eBuy or the Agency
system.
- Program staff and the CO review the responses and rates received to determine
the best value, looking beyond lowest price to, for example, delivery, training
required, and past performance.
- The CO issues a purchase order (or through eBuy) to the selectee using their
GSA contract.
|
Over the Simplified Acquisition Threshold: Labor Hour and BPAs
- Program Staff provide the CO with a SOW including a description of the work
required, a schedule, and the location for delivery and inspection of the work.
- The CO or Program Staff will issue a Request for Quotation (RFQ) containing
the SOW to sufficient Schedule holders on the appropriate Category of the 00CORP Schedule so that at least three bids are received. If less than 3 are received, justification showing the effort made to obtain sufficient bids and must be included with the documentation (See FAR 8.4). The best mechanism
for this process is E-buy on www.gsaadvantage.gov where all correspondence is
electronic, thus speeding up the process significantly.
- When a
buyer, such as a program official, does not have authority to make an award,
they can forward the RFQ, with the quotes received, to the CO so the award can be made quickly using eBuy or the Agency
system.
- Program staff and the CO review the responses and rates received to determine
the best value, looking beyond lowest price to, for example, delivery, training
required, and past performance.
5. The CO issues a purchase order (or through eBuy) to the selectee using their
GSA contract.
|
The total time
can range from 2 days to 2 weeks, depending on the CO's familiarity with
GSA Schedule contracting and internal agency requirements.

|
Consider a BPA. Blanket Purchase Agreements are useful when
there is a need for a wide variety of items, but the exact items, quantities
and delivery requirements are not known in advance. A BPA reduces the administrative
burden of writing numerous purchase orders. BPAs are easy to use, about the
same as the basic RFQ, are flexible, with no maximum limits on orders, and can
be a nationwide contracting vehicle. |
Orders over the Maximum Order Threshold (Schedule 00CORP: $1 Million; Schedule 70: $500,000):
• Follow the above procedure for orders over $150,000.
• Try to receive more than three quotes.
• Seek price reductions from GSA Schedule Prices.
• Place your order with the contractor offering the "Best Value."
