Chapters this template is built with

There is no one-size-fits-all template that works for every use case. Instead, you can customize your proposal using the Proposal Kit's extensive library of thousands of chapters. Below is a starting point for key chapters to include in your proposal.

These sections, customized with relevant GSA-specific information, help create a comprehensive and persuasive proposal tailored to win government contracts for selling services.

This list is just a small selection of the thousands of templates in the Proposal Kit's library. You can customize your proposal to cover all topics necessary for your project.

Cover Sheet (Government Contracts)

The cover sheet is the first impression your proposal makes. It should be professional and clearly state the purpose of the proposal. For a government contract for selling services to the General Services Administration (GSA), ensure that the cover sheet includes the contract number, solicitation title, and your GSA Schedule contract number if you have one. This shows that your proposal is specifically tailored to the GSA's requirements.

Customer Information

Detailing the customer information ensures that the government agency knows who they are dealing with. This includes your company's contact details, business license number, and other relevant information. For GSA contracts, include your DUNS number, SAM registration, and any pertinent GSA Schedule information. This reassures the GSA that your business is fully registered and compliant with federal requirements.

Response Time

Indicating your response time shows your commitment to delivering timely services. This section can outline your availability and how quickly you can start the project after the contract is awarded. In a GSA context, highlight any expedited service options you offer and how they align with the GSA's Fast Track procedures, ensuring the government that you can meet needs effectively.

Service Area

Define the geographical area where your services will be available. This is crucial for government contracts that may have location-specific requirements. For GSA contracts, specify if your services cover nationwide or specific regions. Mention any past projects you've completed in the desired area to demonstrate your experience and capability.

Labor Rates

Outlining your labor rates clearly helps avoid misunderstandings about costs. This section should be detailed and transparent. For GSA contracts, ensure your labor rates comply with the GSA's pricing requirements and include your GSA Schedule price list. This helps the agency verify that your rates are competitive and aligned with federal standards.

Company History

Providing a brief history of your company helps establish credibility. Highlight key milestones, past projects, and any awards or recognitions. For GSA contracts, emphasize any previous government contracts you've held, particularly with the GSA or other federal agencies. This demonstrates your experience handling government projects and understanding of federal procurement processes.

Reliability

Demonstrate your reliability by including references, testimonials, and case studies of past successful projects. This builds trust with the government agency. In a GSA context, focus on government clients and highlight your performance on previous GSA contracts. Provide specific examples of how you met or exceeded the GSA's expectations.

Services Provided

Detail your services, including any special or unique services that differentiate you from competitors. For GSA contracts, align your services with the needs outlined in the GSA solicitation. Highlight any innovative solutions or technologies you offer that can provide additional value to the GSA.

Special Services

If you offer any special services beyond the standard offerings, this is the place to highlight them. This can give you an edge over other bidders. For GSA contracts, identify additional services that could enhance the contract's value, such as advanced security measures, rapid deployment teams, or specialized training programs. Ensure these services are compliant with GSA standards.

Personnel

Introduce the key personnel who will be involved in the project. Include their qualifications, experience, and roles. For GSA contracts, emphasize your team's experience with government projects and any relevant certifications. Highlight any key staff members who have successfully managed GSA contracts, underscoring your team's expertise and reliability.

Preferred Provider

State why your company should be the preferred provider for this contract. Emphasize your strengths and unique selling points. In a GSA context, mention any unique qualifications, such as being a GSA Schedule holder, compliance with FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulation) requirements, and positive CPARS (Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System) ratings. This reinforces your capability and reliability as a government contractor.
