Government Spending through GSA & VA Schedules
Updated April 2, 2019
The GSA & VA Schedules are the most widely used government contracts with over $40 billion in annual sales. The contracts are designed to streamline the government procurement process, in part because they contain pre-negotiated pricing, terms, and conditions. In fiscal year 2018, GSA & VA Schedule sales to federal, state, and local government buyers once again exceeded $45 billion.
The chart below details fiscal year 2018 GSA Schedule sales by Schedule, along with the number of companies that held each Schedule. The GSA Information Technology (IT) Schedule 70 Contract ranks as the largest of all GSA and VA Schedules in terms of sales and number of companies that hold the contract. The IT Schedule consistently accounts for the highest sales each year, followed by the VA Pharmaceuticals & Drugs Schedule.
While there are some exceptions, GSA/VA Schedule Contracts can be used to sell most commercially available products and services. Download our GSA Schedule Beginner’s Guide or watch a 2-minute video to learn more about the contract and how to obtain it.
