What are Subgroups?
GSA rolled out a new feature inside of eBuy, on August 1, 2020 which caused considerable confusion inside the GSA community and understandably so! This new feature is titled “subgroups”, which can be chosen for the SINs currently awarded to your contract inside eBuy. These will provide more specifics about the services or offerings your contract provides. Amidst the new consolidation, many SINs have been crunched together to create very broad mega SINs which can be a little too vague for purchasing officers to pin down which company actually provides what they need. These subgroups cut down on some of that confusion, and this information will be posted inside eBuy and eLibrary for market research purposes.
Some vendors mistakenly thought this meant the addition of SINs can be self-certified inside eBuy, but that is not the case. SINs must still be added through the formal modification process inside eMod.
Not all SINs have subgroups, but the following SINs do:
561210FA, 541690E, 332311P, 532490P, 333241, 336999, 333318F, 335999, 325612, 325998, 325611, 54151HACS, 517312, 54151S, 54151ECOM, 511210, 33411, 339940OS4, 541611, 562112, 541211, 522310, 541330ENG, 562910REM, 541930, 541614, 541620, 561621H, 339113LAB, 334515, 334516, 333997, 332439.
