The MAS Program Management Office recently received an interesting question regarding the utilization of Contractor Team Arrangements (CTAs) under Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs).

This training segment focuses on contractor team arrangements.  This is a relationship between Schedule contractors that works to achieve a total solution for customers and limits the necessity to reach into the open market.  Additionally, the video introduces one of GSA’s e-tools, GSA eLibrary.  This is a search engine and guide to GSA Schedules.  It is the official online source for complete GSA and VA Schedules (and GWACs).
