History

GSA Preview is a division of GSA1000,LLC.

The origin of GSA 1000, LLC, and the GSA Preview Division, stems from a conversation that took place years ago and involved a government purchasing agent who mentioned how difficult it was to locate small companies that are qualified to do business with the Federal government, given that it was a requirement that had to be met. Under the Clinton Administration, it was mandated that any job under $100,000 must go to small businesses. The Federal Suppliers Guide was an effort undertaken to make it easier for federal purchasing agents to locate qualified small businesses.

After purchasing the Federal Suppliers Guide, we at GSA Preview realized that we needed to make our presence known to government purchasing agents. So we attended a lot of tradeshows and contacted government agents on a regular basis to let them know about the products and services our clients could offer them.

Today our main focus is helping clients obtain a GSA Schedule.

We have a 98.5% approval rate, and the few submissions that have not been awarded were due to the client not being upfront with us about their company's history. Last year we were receiving about 1 to 2 approvals per week, and this year the average number of approvals per week is around 4 to 5. We only accept a limited number of applications at one time to ensure the proper amount of detail is given to each application so it can be completed, submitted and hopefully approved in a timely manner.

We have grown the business from 25 employees at 1 location to over 200 employees at 3 locations: Oldsmar, Florida; New Port Richey, FL; and Greenville, South Carolina. GSA Preview offers GSA Specialists, publications and advertising opportunities, in-house legal counsel, an accounting department and a team of graphic designers and marketing specialists.

We have over 30 GSA Consultants who are all marketing specialists and can determine the appropriate GSA Schedules and help develop aggressive plans to market to the Federal Government. Our GSA Specialists know that obtaining a GSA Schedule is the best way to market your product or service to government purchasing agents. All of our GSA Application Processors have been certified by the GSA Center for Acquisition Excellence and have a good rapport with many of the GSA Contracting Officers. And after processing each GSA application, two quality control processes are undertaken prior to submitting an application to the GSA. Our customer service representatives are here to assist you, and our research department is constantly contacting government procurement officers and updating our information on government agencies.

If contacted by one of our appointment setters and it is determined that your company qualifies for government work, please take a moment to schedule an appointment to speak with one of our GSA Specialists.
