Required templates for a MAS offer
You will need to use our templates and then upload the files to your Multiple Award Schedule offer.
Don’t forget to read the entire solicitation — plus the applicable large category attachments that relate to your offerings. SCP-FSS-001 Instructions Applicable to All Offerors under Section I of the solicitation has comprehensive information about applicability of attachments or templates.
Our new offeror checklist [XLSX - 523 KB] summarizes the minimum requirements for your submission. Use the category-specific tabs to make sure you don’t miss anything. A contracting officer also might need additional information as they review your proposal.
If you have specific questions on SIN-specific resources, check our helpful resources for MAS sellers page.
SIN-specific templates
You also need to look for resources and templates by searching the special item number(s) in the look-up table. Some are optional, but others are mandatory.
| Name | Other considerations |
|---|---|
Required Price proposal templates: FCP Product File [XLSX - 803 KB] | The following SINs require you to use specific price proposal templates:
|
| Pricing terms [XLSX - 27 KB] | Required for all. |
| Agent authorization letter | Required if you will use a third party agent to assist you with your offer, negotiations, or post-award actions. |
| Past performance questionnaire [PDF - 138 KB] | Read more about this requirement at Paragraph ii. of Section II — Technical Proposal of the solicitation. You can get a customer reference in another format, but it must address all of the evaluation areas in our PPQ. If your reference will only provide the PPQ directly to a MAS procurement contracting officer, you can upload a letter in place of the questionnaire that states that you have requested a PPQ from a customer who will only forward it directly to the PCO. |
| Letter of supply [DOCX - 17 KB] | Share this template with your supplier to have them sign it, but you will submit it with your offer. If you offer commercial off-the-shelf products — and your proposed products come from a manufacturer who provides supplier authorization data in the Verified Products Portal — then you don’t need to do this. You can look this up in the VPP participation dashboard. Get answers to frequently asked questions about VPP. If you need help, email VPP@gsa.gov. Only required for certain Large Categories and Subcategories. See Solicitation Provision SCP-FSS-001. |
| Request to hold continuous contracts [DOCX - 18 KB] | Only use this if you are an existing MAS contractor and you want a follow-on MAS contract, or you are requesting a Phase 3 consolidation add SIN modification. |
| Joint venture solicitation attachment [DOCX - 1 MB] | Use this if you are a joint venture to maintain compliance. Get answers to frequently asked questions about joint ventures [PDF - 94 KB]. |

If no subcontracting possibilities exist, provide the contracting officer relevant and detailed information for a determination to be made if a subcontracting plan is required or not. Otherwise, you can download the document, complete and sign it, and then attach it directly in eOffer. If you are a large business, nonprofit, educational institution, or any business not designated as a small business, you must provide a subcontracting plan with your offer. Check FAR Part 2 for the definitions of commercial product or commercial service to see which form to use. |
You will also need to compile the following information to input into eOffer.
Financial statements
You need to have the previous two-year period (audited, if available) with at least a balance sheet and income statement. You can explain anything that could reflect negatively on your business. If your company is submitting its offer under the Springboard Startup (FASTLane only), and you don’t have two years of financial statements, you might be able to substitute other information.
Technical proposal
You must address the four technical proposal factors outlined at SCP-FSS-001 Section II – Technical Proposal of the solicitation. Note that Factors One (Corporate Experience), Three (Quality Control) and Four (Relevant Project Experience) must be completed via a 10,000-character-limit narrative in eOffer. We will not consider uploaded documents to address these factors.
Previous notification of determination to cancel contract or not to exercise an option
If you previously had a MAS contract that was canceled or allowed to expire due to low sales or compliance, you need to provide a copy of the cancellation letter or notification of determination not to exercise an option along with your detailed description of the steps you plan to take to generate sales/ensure compliance through a new contract. See SCP-FSS-001 Section I – Administrative/Contract Data of the solicitation for more info.
Commercial supplier agreement
If you have any commercial supplier agreements from your manufacturer, submit them with your offer. If you are the reseller of a product, changes to the end user license agreement must have a signature of approval from the manufacturer. The agreements must be editable, preferably with portions that are federally non-compliant already removed.
Established Pricing Document(s) or Market Rates
We use the established pricing document(s) (e.g., Commercial Price List (CPL), commercial catalog, or other standard market pricing) or market rates to evaluate your company’s pricing. These show prices you provide your current commercial customers.
