3) Do It Yourself Workshops

Do you want to go through the GSA Schedule award process yourself, but find you need a little help? Did you start working on your offer, but felt overwhelmed by the process? Has your GSA Schedule submission been rejected?

EZGSA Can Help! We are now offering our two-day “GSA Schedule Do It Yourself Plus (DIY+)” Workshop. Together with EZGSA experts, you will roll up your sleeves for 12 hours to tackle the most difficult portions of the solicitations including:

• Discounting pitfalls
• Scope of delivery
• Customer categories
• Designated countries of origin and production/inspection points
• Letters of supply
• CCR, ORCA, VETS-100, and other registrations
• FOB and delivery terms and times
• Maximum order thresholds
• Quantity/volume concessions
• The IFF
• Geographic areas
• HazMat and safety inspections
• Commercial pricelists
• What happens after submission
• Negotiation strategies
• And much much more

EZGSA also offers expert support after the workshop! If after you leave the workshop, you encounter something new or think of another critical question, you can just give our experts a call, because each attendee also receives an additional three hours of private consulting time at any point within the 30 days following the workshop. We will work with you to ensure that your proposal is complete: even the dreaded discounting practices and government pricing strategies.

Pre-workshop tools and information are provided, along with our Introduction to GSA Schedules Seminar on CD. Each attendee will receive a packet of materials approximately two weeks before the workshop. We include:

• DIY+: EZGSA's Guide to the GSA Schedule eBook (retail value $950);
• The CD version of EZGSA’s Introduction to GSA Schedules seminar, including binder of valuable reference materials (retail value $249);
• A link to the most recent electronic version of your specific GSA Schedule solicitation; and
• A list of how to prepare for the workshop, including details about company data you should bring with you.

For vendors who are serious about getting a contract award, this detailed information, combined with the DIY+ Workshop will help to quickly move you closer to your goal of a completed proposal! You’ll discover appropriate language for disclosures so that you can get the best profit margin while complying with federal regulations. We'll give you the why and the how of your solicitation's major points.

It's all about you: dedicated, personal service. You and your proposal are the focus of this workshop. Therefore, we’re limiting the workshop to only ten participants so that our experts can give you as much one-on-one attention as you need. Additionally, workshop attendees will receive discounted pricing on other EZGSA services and upgrades if purchased within 30 days of the workshop.
