# GSA Highlights Multiple Award Schedule

The General Services Administration (GSA) describes its Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) as a pre-vetted, FAR-compliant purchasing vehicle through which federal agencies and other authorized buyers can access commercial products and services under pre-negotiated terms. The schedule spans areas including IT, professional services, facilities, and security, with ordering options such as RFQs, BPAs, CTAs, and OLMs. The article describes an established acquisition route, not a new solicitation or contract award.

- Contractors can assess whether MAS fits their route to compete for agency requirements and use the schedule’s ordering tools to pursue work.
- Buyers can use the pre-negotiated terms and available ordering methods to acquire commercial offerings through the vehicle.
- Because MAS covers multiple service and product areas, businesses should align their schedule offerings with the relevant agency requirements; no new deadline or solicitation is identified.
