Speaker and Presenter Information

Stephanie Shutt is the Director of GSA’s Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program Management Office (PMO) for the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), and has been supporting GSA’s MAS program for over 14 years. Ms. Shutt is responsible for overseeing the agency’s $30 billion MAS program offering almost every commercial product and service available to agencies government-wide. As PMO Director, Ms. Shutt ensures GSA’s Schedule program continually addresses current market forces and provides the federal government with a streamlined, value-based contracting solution that continues to save time and money well into the future. She is also responsible for the recently announced MAS single Schedule which consolidated the 24 separate schedules.

Ms. Shutt most recently served as a Project Manager within the MAS PMO leading GSAs Transactional Data Reporting (TDR) initiative, which requires participating contractors to electronically report transactional data for products or services purchased through the MAS program. TDR supports the government-wide category management initiatives by producing market intelligence used by GSA and its partner agencies to make smarter acquisition decisions and save taxpayer dollars.

Ms. Shutt has a Bachelors of Science Degree in both mathematics and statistics from Utah State University.
