How Federal Buyers Can Order Pest Control Through GSA (SIN 325320)

Federal facilities need pest control year-round: offices, housing, dining facilities, hangars, piers and warehouses. For contracting officers and facility managers, a GSA Multiple Award Schedule is often the fastest way to put that service in place. Here is how ordering pest control through GSA works, using our contract as the example.

What is the GSA Multiple Award Schedule?

The GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) is a set of long-term, government-wide contracts with pre-vetted commercial companies. Because GSA has already evaluated the contractor and its pricing, agencies can place orders with far less time and paperwork than a full open-market procurement.

Which SIN covers pest control?

Pest control is ordered under SIN 325320, Pest and Animal Control Products and Services. A SIN (Special Item Number) is GSA’s category for a type of product or service. It is different from the NAICS code, which for pest control services is 561710. When you search GSA Advantage or send an RFQ through eBuy, SIN 325320 is the category to use.

Three ways to order

• GSA Advantage. Search the contract number or company name at GSAAdvantage.gov to see awarded labor categories and pricing.
• GSA eBuy. Post an RFQ to SIN 325320 contractors and compare quotes against the schedule.
• Direct request. Email the contractor your scope, facility and period of performance and ask for a quote against their schedule.

Orders are placed as delivery or task orders against the schedule contract, and many contractors, including Ives, accept government purchase cards for orders within your card limit.
