GSA Schedule for Logistics and Transportation Services
Federal agencies have extensive logistics, freight, and transportation needs — moving equipment to overseas deployments, managing supply chains for government programs, and supporting domestic operations. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule includes logistics and transportation SINs that provide a streamlined vehicle for these services. For logistics companies, the Schedule opens access to a market that is largely inaccessible without a federal contract vehicle.
Logistics SINs on the MAS
Logistics and transportation services on the MAS are covered under the Logistics category. Key SINs include categories for freight transportation, warehousing, inventory management, supply chain consulting, and distribution services. The GSA also operates separate transportation programs for specific categories (like passenger transportation and motor vehicles) that may complement Schedule coverage. Review the current solicitation to identify which SIN best matches your specific logistics capabilities.
DoD Logistics: A Special Market
The Department of Defense has its own extensive logistics infrastructure and specialized contract vehicles (DLA, TRANSCOM) for major logistics requirements. However, smaller-scale logistics requirements — facility moves, equipment transport, local distribution — are regularly purchased through GSA Schedules. Civilian agencies (GSA itself for its facilities, FEMA for disaster logistics, VA for medical supply distribution) are often more accessible entry points for new logistics vendors than DoD programs.
