GOVOLOGY: Is a GSA Schedule Right for You? (2026 Update)

This webinar is designed for business owners, business development professionals, and contracting teams who are considering whether a GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract is the right path for their organization.

The GSA MAS program is a major federal contracting vehicle that gives businesses access to long-term, government-wide contracts. However, qualifying and applying for a schedule requires time, resources, and a clear understanding of federal procurement rules. This session provides a practical overview of the program and helps businesses determine if it’s a good strategic fit.
