About GSA MAS Contract and Argentum Consulting Group
We are the GSA Multiple Award Schedule specialists inside a family of federal contracting brands that has been helping small businesses since 2004.
Our purpose
Businesses that sell to the federal government often find it becomes their largest customer. We design our services to help small and mid-sized firms get there and stay there. The first step is a contracting vehicle such as the GSA MAS, which gives an agency a way to buy from you. The second is partnering with you to build a real federal sales channel. That is why our services and prices are built around small and mid-sized business budgets.
How we got here
Argentum Consulting Group was founded in 2004 by Mark Ryan to help firms win federal schedules and certifications. Early on, it became clear that a contract alone does not produce a return. The group added training, marketing support, and proposal services for IDIQs, GWACs, and MATOCs. Today, our family of divisions offers what a beginner needs to grow into a successful federal prime contractor.
