FedMall – Expand your GSA Schedule with New FedMall!
FedMall was developed by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) and is the federal military procurement program that replaces EMALL (as of June 2017) which served the Department of Defense for the last 30 years. A major difference between the old EMALL and the new FedMall is that now firms can undertake a transfer process to migrate their GSA Schedule into FedMall. This then provides a large additional selling channel into DoD Agencies (Army, Navy, Airforce, Marines). This is because FedMall is designed to provide additional security via either PGP encryption, cXML, or in some cases an Electronic Data Interchange and, therefore, a CA Certificate is required.
Reasons for Undertaking this Change:
FedMall makes purchases easier for federal buyers by allowing for real-time data-driven decisions for federal buyers.
The Department of Defense is the largest buyer of commercial products of any federal agency.
DoD buyers in many cases are limited to the use of FedMall and, therefore, adding this channel increases federal selling opportunities.
FedMall has future plans to expand its availability to state and local governments as well. This will create a market potential of over 90,000 additional government bodies.
FedMall will allow in the near future sales up to the amount of the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. Currently this amount is $150,000.
FedMall will always allow for sales under the micro purchase threshold of $3,500.
There are millions of items already listed on FedMall.
Requirements for FedMall:
Active Sam Registration
CAGE Code
DoD valid authentication certificate such as CAC card, PIV card, or soft certificate prior to registration with FEDMALL.
A long-term government contract such as a Term Agreement (LTA), Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA), GSA Schedule, or DLA contract. (No prior contract is required for office supplies.)

Summary
The 8(a) Certification is widely regarded as the most transformative certification a business can possess. Routinely businesses entering the program start with little to no federal sales experience and a few years into the program are selling millions of dollars’ worth. Like every other good deal there is a catch. The SBA has a very rigorous application process that according to the SBA’ historical averages only has a 25% approval rate, firms still know best practices for taking advantage of this program, and the program duration for its participants is only nine years.
This webinar is designed for both individuals that are totally new to hearing about the 8(a) program, but goes into enough detail where someone that has prior knowledge about 8(a) through federal contracting can still learn many of the intricacies of the program. If you have interest in the 8(a) program and would like to bring yourself up to speed this is a recommended webinar for you.
