Federal Business

JFNew continues to expand our services to the federal government, and has been contracted for several large federal projects. If a federal agency has an ecological consulting or environmental restoration need, JFNew is accessible through our GSA contract. The GSA contract enables us to provide our services to any federal agency through April 2009. In addition to competing directly for federal work, the GSA contract enables us to more easily partner with large businesses doing work with the federal government. Our small business classification helps agencies and federal prime contractors reach mandated procurement goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a GSA Multiple Award Schedule? A GSA Schedule, also known as a Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), is a listing of contractors that have been awarded a contract by GSA that can be used by all federal agencies.
2. How does GSA award these contracts? GSA awards competitive contracts to those companies who give the same or better discounts than their best commercial customers, after it determines the prices to be fair and reasonable. The Federal Supply Schedule program mirrors commercial buying practices more than any other procurement process in federal government.
3. How will I benefit from using this schedule? You will benefit from using this schedule by: - All competition requirements have been met - GSA has already negotiated the Volume Purchase discounts for you. - Blanket Purchase Agreements give you flexible purchasing options that save you time and money. - GSA has already issued the synopsis and met the synopsis requirements. - Schedule orders count toward small business goals. - Access to state-of-the-art technology and quality services.
4. How do I place an order under this schedule? Send your request for quote (which includes your performance-based statement of work) to three or more schedule contractors. Evaluate your responses for best value. Send a task order to your selection.
5. I do not have a contracting warrant. Can I order off the schedule? No. A contracting officer needs to place orders against the schedule. You would contact your contracting department with your requirements which may or may not result in you providing a statement of work (SOW). (Note - the Contracting Officer may actually prepare the SOW based upon your requirements). Once the SOW is prepared, the Contracting Officer will issue the RFQ to the maximum extent practical, conduct the evaluation and make the award which results in a task order.
6. How much does it cost me to use the schedule? There is no charge for use of the schedule. This program is supported by Industrial Funding Fees paid by the contractor.
