What is the SSQ?
The Schedule Sales Query (SSQ) enables you to easily research how well your competitors are doing selling to the Government. This system is managed by GSA and contains sales reported by GSA’s Federal Supply Schedule contractors.
The reports are generated as quarterly reports for the current year and the previous five fiscal years. The sales data reported here are updated as contractors' reports are received, but the data may not be up to date. The information on this site is used by GSA for contract administration and fee management.
The SSQ contains a report generator that allows you to quickly select a preformatted report for the information you need. To facilitate the process, GSA provides 11 standard reports that were developed based on historically requested data.
Some of these reports are not that useful for competitor research. However, they may be useful for other marketing purposes, such as determining other schedules that your firm may want to obtain, or to discern sales patterns by quarter.
TurboGSA provides a brief guide that provides instructions on how to search competitors using the SSQ. It covers how to navigate the SSQ system, discusses which reports are best for GSA Competitor research, and how to download competitor sales reports.
