High Sierra Consulting Assists Penn Air Control In The Award Of Their GSA Federal Supply Schedule

(I-Newswire) July 28, 2010 - Bishop, CA.- High Sierra Consulting is pleased to announce that yet another client, Penn Air Control has been awarded their GSA Federal Supply Schedule under Schedule 03FAC, Facility Maintenance, for SINs 811-005 and 871-206. Penn Air Control is a Veteran Owned Small Business located in Cypress, CA and provides state-of-the-art HVAC energy conservation and indoor air quality solutions – including Mechanical System’s Commissioning, Test and Balance Engineering, HVAC Cleaning/Mold Abatement and IAQ Investigations. John Lee, Vice President for Penn Air stated, “High Sierra Consulting was tenacious in assisting us through this entire process. They were competent and excellent to work with. We could not have done this without them.”

The General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedules program is a process where small and large businesses pre-negotiate a long term contract which is accessible by every Federal agency for ease of purchasing. These GSA Schedules are for a five year term with three five year option periods providing a potential 20 year contract with the Federal Government. Because of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.404, the contracting process for achieving awards is faster and more efficient for Schedule holders. This contracting vehicle can provide a dynamic potential for winning business and increasing revenue. GSA Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) administers these GSA Schedules but they are available to all agencies.

There are approximately 26 million businesses in the United States. Of those, less than 500,000 are registered to do business with the Federal Government on the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) database. And of those, only about 18,000 have GSA Schedules. Having a GSA Schedule can significantly reduce a company’s competition. Information Technology is the largest GSA Schedule with sales last year of almost $16 billion. But GSA Schedules are more than IT and cover most products and services that a business would offer from office supplies to law enforcement to engineering to consulting.
