Contractor Assistance Visits with GSA’s Supplier Management Division

The Coalition will be hosting a Myth-Busters webinar focusing on the processes and procedures for Contractor Assistance Visits (CAVs) under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule program. CAVs are conducted by the Industrial Operations Analysts (IOA) from GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service (FAS).  MAS contractors can expect 2-3 CAVs over the course of a five year contract period in the current environment. It is vital to contract compliance and your overall business interests to understand the IOA role and expectations for MAS contractors.

Tom Brady, Director, Supplier Management Division, Office of Acquisition Management at GSA’s Federal Acquisition Service will be discussing the respective roles of the Administrative Contracting Officer (ACO) and the IOA. Topics will include the updated review parameters and processes for CAVs as well as key compliance issues (e.g. Industrial Funding Fee) surrounding MAS contracts. This webinar is a “must dial in” event for contractor compliance managers, in house counsel, contracting officers, and executives responsible for management and oversight compliance.
