GSA Pricing - Disclosing Commercial Sales Practices

A firm’s commercial pricing and discounting practices, known as Commercial Sales Practices (CSP) in GSA jargon, have a direct impact on your GSA pricing. Your pricing practices prior to negotiating GSA prices impact the price you will negotiate, and future changes to CSP may affect pricing under your GSA contract.

• that GSA considers channel partners (such as OEMs, dealers, and VARs) a customer and therefore you must disclose their discounts too
• that there are all kinds of discounts that must be disclosed, such as basic discounts, volume discounts, quantity discounts, prompt pay discounts, and other concessions
• how to properly disclose deviations from your normal discounting practices
• what pricing strategies can be used to avoid competition
