Government Purchasing Options
The Toshiba Government Communications Program offers several
purchasing options designed to meet your specifi c requirements.
GSA Schedule Purchases
If your organization is authorized to purchase from the General
Services Administration (GSA) Schedule, the Toshiba GSA Schedule
(contract number GS-35-F-0252T) offers a fast, easy purchasing
path that eliminates time-consuming bids. Take advantage of
these benefi ts:
Standardized pricing for equipment and installation
Simplifi ed budget information for accurate purchase and
installation forecasting
A dedicated Toshiba government specialist to coordinate all
aspects of your purchase
When you order Toshiba communications systems through our
GSA Program, you have several convenient payment options:
GSA SmartPay® purchase cards
Toshiba Financial Services leasing programs
GSA Advantage!® online (www.fss.gsa.gov)
Discounts for prompt payments and bulk purchases
Open Market Purchases
If you prefer to purchase on the open market, rather than through
the Toshiba GSA Schedule, competitive pricing is also available
through your local authorized Toshiba TSD dealer. These dealers
can offer you affordable pricing as well as the benefi ts of Toshiba
Financial Services Leasing programs.
GSA MAS Contract Purchases
Through GSA’s Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), contracts are
approved and awarded rapidly. Open to all Federal agencies as well
as State and Local organizations, those agencies and vendors who
order using MAS contracts receive some unique benefi ts, including:
Administrative savings and reduced acquisition cost
No synopsis required
Shorter lead-times and turn-times
Compliance with various laws and regulations
Volume purchase prices across an agency
Wider selection of commercial services and products
Access to the latest technology
Clients who qualify for MAS Contract purchases have these
additional advantages:
Meet competition requirements through pre-negotiated, best
commercial rates
Meet small business goals
Offer easy payment options
Keeps solicitation continuously open
Your Toshiba Government Communications Program dealer can
help you determine if your agency is qualifi ed to purchase through
GSA MAS Contracts.
For recurring orders, your agency may realize additional savings by
establishing Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) under your GSA
Schedule contract. A BPA streamlines the order process, reduces
your administrative efforts by eliminating individual orders and
payments, and lets you leverage your agency’s buying power
through volume purchases.
Government agencies awarding and administering contracts
during emergencies are encouraged to seek out prequalifi ed GSA
contractors. Please see the May 2007 Emergency Acquisitions
Guide, developed by the Offi ce of Federal Procurement Policy and
released by the Offi ce of Management and Budget (OMB), available
at www.whitehouse.gov/omb/procurement/guides/emergency_
acquisitions_guide.pdf, for information.
