Invoice Submission:

An invoice and supporting information should be submitted within five business days after Government acceptance of completion of work. The GSA Paying Number (QP) (from GSA Form 300, Box 4) MUST be on the invoice. An original copy of the invoice must be submitted for acceptance to VCSS; the website for this database is:

https://vcss.ocfo.gsa.gov. To obtain invoice payment status, please access the website at https://vcss.ocfo.gsa.gov.

If the vendor submits a revised invoice, the revised invoice must include: 1) a unique invoice number, 2) a brief explanation, and 3) a cross-reference to any previous invoice submittals for tracking purposes and avoiding duplication. An original invoice number may be made unique by appending the letter “R” plus a number to it. For example, INV12345 (original) becomes INV12345R1 (revised). If this invoice were to be submitted a second time, the invoice number would be INV12345R2. This pattern can be repeated as needed.

Vendors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) before an award could be made to them. If a company is not currently registered in SAM, they may do so by going to the web site at SAM.gov and attaching a copy of the registration to the quote.

If vendors are not registered in SAM by the RFP due date and time, they will be considered ineligible for award and its proposal will not be evaluated. It is the vendor’s responsibility to register in SAM. GSA will not be able to assist in this process. If there are any questions in the process, vendors must follow the instructions specified in RFP Attachment 4.
