Read MoreThis is going to be a brief overview of the most recent refresh to the MAS Solicitation, refresh #8. GSA didn’t make the contents of this refresh overly public or easy to access- we had to do a little digging as we were given no heads up that a refresh was even coming out. If you are in the dark as to the nature of this refresh, you are not alone! Hopefully we can clear up any gray areas for anyone whose feeling caught off guard or a little confused!
Read MoreGSA is rolling out a new system called the Unique Entity ID #. The UEI is going to replace your DUNS number-the 9 digit code the government uses to verify your unique entity. Previously, vendors had to register with Dun and Bradstreet, get their DUNS number assignment, and THEN they could register inside the System for Award Management, or SAM.gov. As of April 4, 2022 DUNs numbers will no longer be used, and instead will be replaced with the UEI.
Read MoreAs always, refreshes to the solicitation must be incorporated into every vendors contract. The changes will be issued via Mass Mod. Each vendor will receive an email to the Contract Administrator on file, letting you know the Mass Mod is available. You will then need to pop over to the Mass Mod portal within 90 days of receiving the email, and accept all changes proposed by GSA. You can take exception if you choose to do so. If you are a retainer client of ours we will accept the Mass Mod on your behalf.
Read MoreAuthorized Negotiators are very important to understand so that all the correct people have appropriate access to your contract. Authorized Negotiators are legally allowed to talk with your contracting officer about your GSA contract. Whether this is for a contractor assessment, or to provide clarifications during a separate modification request. First let’s break down how to add them to your contract. Every time you want to add someone new, you will need to create an administrative modification request inside of eMod. There is a specific template that must be filled out, which can be found here. You may add multiple people at once, just make sure they are all included on that specific letter, and all their information is also manually typed in inside of eMod. These requests once submitted are normally approved within a day or two. When someone is added as an authorized negotiator, they will then immediately have access to your company’s eMod profile- this allows them to submit modification requests for the company and can review all the modifications completed in the past.
