GSA Pricing & Scope Disputes

The General Services Administration (GSA) offers a method of purchasing goods and services, by the Unites States Government, from private companies that have gone through the process of submitting a proposal and negotiating a fixed fee and then being awarded a GSA contract.

When selling products or services through a GSA contract private companies are required to sell their products or services at the agreed to price, without alteration. The only means of alteration is allowed through an official modification to the GSA contract.

A Contracting Officer is not allowed to direct GSA contractors to change their price or modify a product or service unless there is a mutually signed modification.

Contractors in the past that have accepted a Contracting Officers oral statements and made changes have been terminated, debarred, and in some cases accuses and prosecuted for fraud.

If you find yourself in this type of situation contact M3 Federal Contract Practice Group, LLC for guidance and support in order to avoid what can lead to serious consequences.

On behalf of M3 Federal Contract and its employees, we want to wish you and your families a very blessed, healthy, and safe 2020.
