Cumplimiento de TAA Federal Explicado: Lo que Deben Saber los Revendedores Gubernamentales

Jul 19, 2012

¿Sabía que hay un mercado de $50 mil millones en los Programas GSA Schedule (Administración de Servicios Generales de EE. UU.) del gobierno federal? Eso es alrededor del 10 por ciento del gasto total de adquisición federal. ¿Sabía que agosto y septiembre son, por tradición, los meses más ocupados del año para las agencias gubernamentales ya que deben tomar decisiones de compra de tecnología para el próximo año (el año fiscal termina el 30de septiembre)? Si bien este mercado es muy atractivo para las empresas, para calificar para estos programas federales, los productos deben ser compatibles con la Ley de Acuerdos Comerciales (TAA, por sus siglas en inglés) y tener características de productos especiales incluidos en la categoría especializada para aumentar su oportunidad para ganar la licitación.

There is great opportunity for resellers to differentiate themselves in the larger monitor bidding process if they fully understand the niche government product features that will distinguish them from the competition under IT Schedule 70. Whether it’s small or large format displays you are considering, before jumping into the TAA compliant display business, make sure you are aware of the following handful of features that will greatly improve the user experience for your buyer: For instance, ViewSonic’s latest small format TAA display models feature a DisplayPort™ input, Eco-mode functionality for reduced power consumption and longer product life, advanced ergonomics, and automatic aspect ratio adjustment. Our large format commercial displays (sizes 42”, 47”, 55” and 65”) offer features including energy saving LED panel technology, a built-in media player for video and signage, slim bezels for eye-catching design, and video-wall-ready capabilities for extended possibilities. The Energy Star®, Eco-mode and LED features give our products an edge to qualify for the monitor product category under the GSA Environmental Program. Government needs smarter technology solutions. Ultra slim designs and Displayport™ features add this advantage. DisplayPort™ is the next generation interface technology replacing DVI, LVDS and VGA and enabling ultra thin displays, higher graphic performance and super fast response time.

ViewSonic has merged its 25-year display heritage and expertise to deliver the latest and greatest display technology at the best value along with TAA compliance, to offer our resellers the opportunity to get into the TAA monitor game. Our channel support also offers a variety of programs to support government resellers, including joint-participation for trade shows, bid services and more.
