The General Service Administration’s (GSA’s) OASIS+ (One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services – Plus) professional services vehicle is a significant opportunity for many organizations. This follow-on to the GSA’s OASIS consolidates three other GSA vehicles with a combined $133.7 billion ceiling. OASIS+ has no set ceiling and no limit on the number of awards, and all qualifying bidders will receive an award. It is crucial to ensure a fully compliant proposal and that your bid receives all claimed points.
Understanding the RFP Requirements
The OASIS+ RFP is a complicated document that requires a deep understanding of RFPs and GSA’s evaluation methodologies to navigate effectively. Our team at OST Global Solutions is here to save you time, money, and energy by providing a complete understanding of the RFP requirements and its amendments. We are equipped to answer any questions you may have regarding the proposal requirements and the submission process. We have experience using Symphony, the OASIS+ Submission Portal (OSP), and can assist as you upload your documents.
Scorecard Gap Analysis
Our services also include a scorecard gap analysis. We identify the domains for which your organization qualifies, the gaps that exist, and how we can help bridge these gaps. We analyze you past performance and help decide which contracts will maximize your score. Additionally, we connect our clients with teaming partners who possess the capabilities and past performance that your organization may lack, enhancing your overall score and eligibility to win multiple domains. We also act as an independent evaluator, providing unbiased analysis of eligibility and likelihood of success, which will help your organization make an effective bid-no/bid decision.
Proposal Management and Coordination
Our team offers proposal management and coordination, using a proposal schedule, compliance matrix, and document tracker. We assist in gathering the required project documentation and certifications, as well as generating the verification forms that may be needed. This ensures that your proposal remains compliant and compelling.
