Late yesterday, GSA issued the second refresh of the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Solicitation 47QSMD20R0001. The solicitation was originally released in October of 2019 and the first refresh was issued in January of 2020. Like the initial refresh, the latest revisions include the removal of outdated references. Read on to see what solicitation changes are now in effect.
Summary of Changes: GSA MAS Solicitation Refresh 2
- GSA Advantage photo instructions
- Addition of a new Special Item Number for Fourth-Party Logistics
- SIN corrections
- Clause updates to remove reference to paper price lists and modifications
- Updated Service Contract Act (SCA) Wage Determinations (WDs)
- Clause updates and additions in accordance with FAR Rule 2014-002 regarding government-wide policy for partial set-asides and reserves, and for set-asides of orders for small business concerns under multiple award contracts.
GSA Advantage Photos
Refresh 2 of the GSA MAS Solicitation includes a clause specifying that companies offering products under certain Special Item Numbers (SINs), must upload data to GSA Advantage, to include product photos and/or Universal Product Codes (UPC).
GSA emphasizes the importance of accurate photos, which contributes to less confusion, increased customer satisfaction, and reduced returns. According to GSA, over 15 million products on Advantage currently lack a photo and nearly 60% of products have photos that are unrelated to the product.
GSA Suggested Best Practices for Advantage Product Photos
- Include up to 4 photos per product to show different views. You’ll be required to identify the primary photo.
- Primary photos should not be a drawing.
- Photo should only show the product that is for sale, with few or no props or accessories that are not included with the product. Inclusion of additional accessories not included with the product may confuse the buyer.
- Photos should only contain text that is a part of the product.
- Photos should not contain a company logo, unless it is part of a product’s branding and affixed to the product itself.
