Before uploading your GSA Advantage electronic catalog using SIP, please review these helpful tips to ensure successful processing:
- Use the SIP “Change” button to upload only the items being added, deleted, or updated. It is more efficient and provides a significantly lower risk of inadvertently damaging your established GSA Advantage file.
- Do not hit the SIP “Replace” button to upload your entire GSA contract portfolio after every mod. If you have questions concerning preparing and submitting your electronic catalog using the SIP, contact the VSC at 877-495-4849 (M-F 8:30-5:30 PM EST) or email vendor.support@gsa.gov.
- Ensure the SIP file is accurate and reflects the most recent changes that have been approved by the CO. Only upload approved contract items and/or services on GSA Advantage. Inform the CO assigned to your contract of any pending changes. Most changes to your electronic catalog file require an approved contract modification before you can update the changes in the SIP and upload to GSA Advantage.
- Your SIP text file on GSA Advantage should contain the complete GSA price list to include the cover page and terms and conditions as specified in clause I-FSS-600 Contract Price List.
- Your GSA Advantage file must be kept current and updated at least every two years to avoid suspension in GSA Advantage. Even if you have not had any changes to your products and/or service offerings, you must still verify and re-upload the file every two years.
