Letter of Commendation for a Job Well Done

“…working with the US Government’s GSA System is a very time consuming, complicated, and frustrating process and many times we just wanted to throw in the towel. However; with Steve’s patience, understanding of GSA, and his unwavering support for us we finally got the job done. Through his efforts we now have a 5-year GSA contract extension and have dramatically modified our GSA schedule to better reflect our product offerings. All of this could not have been done without Steve’s help.”

Thanks GCAP for assisting JLC Avionics to receive an award

JLC Avionics, LLC reported an award of $2,626,484. This base +4 option years contract was their first federal award. The contractor said:

"We could not have done this without the assistance of the GCAP personnel, particularly Marta. Our previous attempt at applying for a contract failed dismally due to our lack of knowledge. GCAP staff were helpful, knowledgeable and very patient in helping us through the whole process from initial registration on SAM.gov to fine tuning our proposals. We could not have gone this far and had such a successful outcome without all the help they provided. It is amazing to me that this is a free service, and I would highly recommend that any company seriously attempting to bid on such contracts utilize your services, THANK YOU."


GCAP is Wonderful

"We had tried for years to sell to the Government our Food Carts and Vending Carts but could never get anywhere until we found Steve Spilker who helped us with everything. Steve was so wonderful and now we have a contract for information booths with the air force."

"Steve Spilker is my go to guy for all things GSA. Although I regretfully originally paid for consultants it was Steve who did all the consulting. Any time I have a question or concern Steve is always there to help and on top of all the GSA market trends. Knowing now that I have someone like Steve to fall to with GSA questions I would not make the mistake of paying for a consultant again."
