GSA Catalog Management

A critical piece of modernizing GSA’s catalog management environment is transitioning from an outdated desktop-based application, the Schedule Input Program (SIP), to a new web-based application, the Common Catalog Platform (CCP). The Common Catalog Platform will provide a single user interface for GSA workforce and contract holders to collectively manage catalogs. The Catalog team has developed a preliminary set of features and functions for this new application based on engagements with the GSA workforce, and is now looking for inputs from our vendors.

We recently introduced you to the Catalog Management initiative, one of the four cornerstone projects of  GSA’s Federal Marketplace Strategy. Catalog Management is a concept that is often associated with products, but GSA is also looking at services in our long term solution.
