What is a Contract Vehicle

In this podcast episode, the discussion focuses on the concept of a "contract vehicle" in government contracting. 

Nicholas explains that a contract vehicle, often referred to as a GSA schedule, is a formal agreement with the government that allows for the procurement of goods and services at predetermined prices. Unlike a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP), a contract vehicle provides a pre-negotiated framework, simplifying the procurement process. 

This arrangement benefits contractors by offering long-term opportunities and visibility. The episode also explores the relevance of contract vehicles to investor relations, highlighting their importance in evaluating companies engaged in government contracting.
