Chapter Hosts Director of GSA's Multiple Award Schedule PMO

In March, the chapter hosted Stephanie Shutt, director of the General Service Administration's (GSA's) Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program Management Office (PMO), to discuss upcoming changes to GSA's MAS program. Shutt has supported the MAS program for nearly 15 years and currently oversees the agency's $30 billion schedule program, which consists of 24 schedules offering almost every commercial product and service available to agencies government-wide. As PMO director, Shutt provides strategic guidance and direction, ensuring the program continually addresses evolving market forces to provide the federal government with streamlined, value-based contracting solutions. Shutt detailed the two-year, three-phased approach to schedule consolidation and answered questions from AFCEA members on what schedule holders should expect in the coming years. Affected schedules include GSA's IT schedule 70, professional services schedule (PSS), travel schedule and document schedule, plus 20 others. GSA government-wide acquisition contracts (GWACs), such as 8(a) STARS II, Alliant 2, Alliant 2 Small Business, and the VETS 2 GWAC, are not impacted by the consolidation effort. GSA MAS holders with questions on the consolidation are encouraged to contact Shutt's office via email at maspmo@gsa.gov. Article and photo credit: Eric Strauss.
