NEW TDR Mandates
With Refresh 27 (synonymous with Refresh 28, please see previous post) came new mandates for vendors that must now participate in TDR. Loosely, all vendors that sell products, or have SIN 518210C: Cloud Computing and Cloud Related IT Professional Services must now opt into the TDR program. You can read all about this program in my earlier post here.
GSA did send out an email in error to several contractors stating that they must opt into TDR, when in fact they were not actually eligible to do so. If you want to double check your current list of SINs again the SINs that now must enroll in the program you can do so on GSA’s website here. Scroll about halfway down the page to the table titled “SINs eligible for TDR”. Input your SINs one at a time in the search bar to see if they are included in the list. If your SIN shows up, then your entire contract needs opted into TDR. If your SINs are not included in the list, then you were sent that GSA email in error and can disregard.
For those of you who now do need to opt into TDR, GSA lays out the following steps that need taken prior to September 15, 2025:
Accept Mass Modification A903/A904 (as not everybody received A903 due to a system error)
Submit a “Participate in TDR” modification via eMod.
Guidance explaining how to submit your “Participate in TDR” modification can be found on the eOffer/eMod Help Center linked here.
Additional guidance can be found in the Participate in TDR Mod Type section of the MAS Modification Guidance located here on the Modification and mass modification guidance gsa.gov page.
You will only be required to submit a cover letter signed by an authorized negotiator with your modification. On the effective date of the TDR modification your entire contract will be subject to TDR. It is important to start tracking the specific data requirements for GSA sales immediately:
Contract or blanket purchase agreement number
Delivery, task order number, or procurement instrument identifier
Non-federal entity
Special item number
Description of deliverable
Manufacturer name
Manufacturer part number
Unit measure
Universal product code
Quantity of item
Price paid per unit
Total price
Federal customer*
Order date*
Ship date*
ZIP code shipped to*
These data points must be uploaded monthly for each sale in the sales reporting portal. Your IFF payment will also then need remitted monthly. Here is a link to a GSA training video for how to execute your TDR reports.
If you have any questions about your contract’s eligibility/requirements or need assistance opting into TDR, please shoot us an email at info@elevategsa.com.
