Thanks so much for this video!! I contacted the APTAC center and they said they only help business that have already gotten contracts 🙄 the one in my area was not interested in helping a new business. Has anyone had any luck getting help from them?
Your videos are simply extraordinary!! Period. If you could provide a pricing strategy or formula for products NOT services that would include packaging and marking that would be a great video I am sure your community would appreciate. Please continue to provide quality videos and straight forward explanations.

I would start by looking at the prices the government is currently paying. There are lots of sources for pricing information. You can look up the awarded amount for contracts in FPDS. Also, did you know that GSA Schedule Price Lists are posted online? You can look up other company's Price Lists and see their prices. Bear in mind that companies often offer a discount off of the posted price.

@@FedAccess I have been attempting to analyze as diligently as possible through all of the aforementioned sites. My main hurdle is the markup, FOB Destination pricing, and the packaging/marking that is required by the DLA. I suppose what I am asking is: (1) what's a reasonable ballpark markup and is it reasonable to markup shipping as well to give a just-in-case cushion? (2) how do you ask the manufacturer for a Line item per item transport rate or is this asking the same question twice and is this figured into the price/item?; Thanks again for all your help. I really do appreciate it.
@FedAccess

Your price should be somewhere between your cost and what you're competitors are charging. You can look up the GSA Price Lists to see what they are charging. Another approach: go ahead and submit a bid. When the contract is awarded, the government will tell you the awarded amount. From there you'll know what your competitors are charging.

Omg...... thank you sooooooooooo much... you have a new sub🥰.. also, what is a capabilities statement that goes with the proposal?
@FedAccess
2 жыл бұрын
I'm glad the video was helpful! The capabilities statement is your marketing literature. You use it every time you talk to a potential buyer. Think of it like your elevator speech. It's different from a proposal which is written for a particular job. I have a video on how to write the capabilities statement.
