Are Your Buyers Using the GSA Schedule?
The GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) and VA Federal Supply Schedule are both government-wide contract vehicles that can be used to sell to any federal agency. Government buyers spend over $30 billion annually through GSA MAS Contracts and over $10 billion annually through VA Schedule Contracts.
The chart below shows the 15 agencies that spent the highest amount through GSA/VA Schedule Contracts in fiscal year 2020. The Department of Defense (DOD) as a whole consistently outspends all other agencies through the GSA Contract. However, when breaking down spending by agency, the VA comes in at number one, followed by the Army.

Agencies with Highest Percentage of Spending through
GSA & VA Schedule Contracts FY 2020
In fiscal year 2020, the three agencies listed below had the highest percentage of contract awards through the GSA/VA Schedule. While their budgets are a fraction of some larger agencies, such as the Army, VA, and Defense Logistics Agency, the majority of their contract awards were to companies that held a GSA/VA Schedule Contract. With percentages like those detailed below, a company may consider a GSA/VA Schedule a necessity to work with GSA’s Technology Transformation Service, the Department of Treasury’s Inspector General, or the National Endowment for the Humanities.
