Joint Ventures on the GSA Schedule: Understanding Unique Challenges and Risks

Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contracts present a great opportunity for Joint Venture (JV) companies. With the GSA MAS program not being subject to the two-year bidding limitation, JVs can capitalize on the long ordering period. With a unique set of requirements, JV companies will face a learning curve. Members of a JV must implement proper contract administration procedures to help mitigate compliance risk for all parties.

Join Aprio’s Jacelyn Ferriell and David Black, Co-Chair of Holland & Knight’s National Government Contracts Team for our webinar Joint Ventures on the GSA Schedule: Understanding Unique Challenges and Risks. We will be addressing key hurdles and risks when a joint venture seeks and then holds a GSA schedule.

Sign up for this interactive discussion to learn more about a range of topics, including: 

  • GSA’s current policies and procedures addressing joint venture proposals for GSA MAS
  • Issues regarding proposal pricing and the Commercial Sales Practices disclosure for the joint venture
  • Product considerations
  • Price Reductions Clause compliance and risk
  • Best practices for compliance

Learning Objectives

  • Discover Small Business Administration (SBA) regulations and requirements for Joint Venture companies
  • Identify strategic solutions for companies holding both a JV MAS contract and an individual MAS contract
  • Improve your knowledge on GSA’s current policies and procedures addressing joint venture proposals for GSA MAS
