Reporting Sales for GSA MAS Contractor Team Arrangements (CTAs)

Under a Contractor Team Arrangement (CTA), two or more GSA Schedule contractors work together in offering a total solution to meet the ordering activity’s needs. Learn more on gsa.gov

Authorized Dealers

Some contract holders elect to authorize a dealer(s) to sell products under their GSA contract on their behalf. This is a relationship that occurs when a contract holder authorizes a separate legal business entity to use their MAS contract. This relationship allows a contract holder to leverage the sales expertise of their dealer network to increase their GSA contract sales.

Important to note:

  • An authorized dealer must be approved by the Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO) and incorporated into the contract.
  • All contract terms and conditions that apply to the contract holder also apply to the dealer.
  • An authorized dealer is not the same thing as a reseller, which holds their own MAS contract.
  • A contractor’s sales tracking system must be able to recognize, track, and report eligible sales for all participating dealers.
  • The dealer and contract holder need to carefully coordinate on invoicing and billing responsibilities.

If you are considering an authorized dealer relationship, discuss the requirements and relevant clauses with your PCO.
