Win and Manage Government Contracts with Expert GSA Consultants
Road Map Consulting is a GSA Schedule consultant that helps businesses get on the GSA Schedule, stay compliant after award, and build a steady pipeline of federal work. We have guided contractors through GSA MAS and OASIS+ since 2009.
GSA Schedule Consulting Services
A GSA Schedule, also called the Multiple Award Schedule, is a long term contract with the federal government. Once you hold one, agencies can buy from you directly without running a full open competition every time. It is one of the most direct ways to sell products and services to federal buyers.
Getting the contract is detailed work, and keeping it in good standing is its own job. Our GSA consultants handle both. We prepare and submit your offer, respond to the contracting officer, and then support the reporting, modifications, and audits that come after award.
Some clients come to us before they have ever bid on federal work. Others already hold a Schedule that needs cleanup. We start from wherever your business actually is.

Client Testimonials
Real words from businesses we have supported through GSA, 8(a), and beyond.
I conducted a thorough search to identify a qualified replacement, reviewing 45 companies and individual consultants. After evaluating websites, credentials, and inviting top candidates to complete a comprehensive questionnaire, I recommended Road Map Consulting (RMC) as the firm best suited to support Monode’s needs moving forward. RMC was highly responsive, transparent in sharing their relevant experience, including work with UID and RFID, and provided excellent questionnaire responses along with strong client references. I believe they bring the professionalism, experience, and ethics necessary for this important role.
Mr. Michael Perch has been a trusted advisor to my company since 2018, and the experience working with him and the RMC team has been nothing short of exceptional. Our partnership began with the successful submission and award of our SBA 8(a) application, and from there, RMC continued to support us through key milestones, including securing our GSA MAS contract with HACS and later guiding us through the 8(a) STARS III contract vehicle. Most recently, with RMC’s expert guidance, we were approved for the SBA Mentor-Protégé Program. Over the past seven years, collaborating with Mr. Perch and his team has been incredibly rewarding. Their deep understanding of government contracting and strategic business development has been instrumental to our growth. Beyond their technical expertise, what stands out is the genuine trust, respect, and collaborative spirit they bring to every engagement. RMC is more than a consulting firm; they have become a valued extension of our business.
Road Map Consulting is an outstanding service firm. I have worked directly with Michael Perch and his team, and I will not do anything within the GSA system without consulting with them first. They manage T47’s GSA activities and ensure the company remains compliant in all aspects. I gladly pay the fees assessed by Road Map because it allows us to maintain their consulting services and have them interact directly with GSA on our behalf. With the constant changes and GSA’s expanding role in acquisitions across the federal government, it is vitally important to have Road Map managing compliance and communication. Road Map is now part of the T47 ethos, and I highly recommend making them part of yours as well.
