Now that you have a GSA Schedule award, ensure that you remain compliant with all GSA and FAR regulations so that you can maximize the Schedule's effectiveness as a sales and revenue generating tool. Although a poorly negotiated contract may be damaging to your federal business strategy, a poorly monitored and administered Schedule can be devastating (can you say audit?). Does your company have procedures in place to monitor contract pricing, terms, and conditions? Are you aware of the risks of not doing so?
