Your company has been working diligently, collecting
paperwork and filling out documents for months now, all to submit a proposal
against one of GSA’s service schedules. Countless hours have been spent and
lots of confusion understanding government documents has happened. But you’ve
figured it out, worked with the system and are almost ready to submit.
Then you heard the news: the services schedules are no
longer accepting solicitations against them! All that work for nothing. Not so
fast…
The recent refresh to the solicitation for services
contracts had the following blurb: “New
offers for GSA Schedules 520 (FABS), 541 (AIMS), 738II (Language), 871 (PES),
874 (MOBIS), 874V (Logistics), and 899 (Environmental) are no longer being
solicited or accepted.” If you read on, the solicitation directs all
potential applicants to 00CORP.
So all that hard work later you think, “Great.. Now I have
to start over with a new solicitation?!”
Not quite.
00CORP does have some of its own extra requirements, but a
lot of the work that you’ve done is still valid! The special item numbers
you’ve selected still apply and the narratives that you’ve worked so hard to
craft still work. But here are some quick tips in case 00CORP has your company
stressed out!
Tip 1: make sure
you transfer all your info to the templates for the 00CORP Solicitation. The
headers are correct on the documents found at this link- https://goo.gl/9kCqkM
Tip 2: The
special items that you selected are still correct. Just add a “c” in front of
them to signify consolidated
Tip 3: The
summary of offer document for 00CORP is very different than the services one
was. Make sure you read through it carefully and provide all the necessary
information!
