About this file
This document provides detailed guidelines for product images and descriptions for GSA Global Supply. The image requirements specify technical details including CMYK color mode, 300 DPI resolution, 3" x 3" image size, TIFF file type, and specific Photoshop-related preparation instructions such as using a clipping path, white background, no alpha channels, and flattened files. Images must be submitted outside the GSA Advantage upload and coordinated with the assigned contracting officer, and must be accompanied by an Excel spreadsheet master list identifying filenames, National Stock Numbers (NSNs), and image purpose.
The document also outlines product description and categorization requirements, emphasizing the importance of accurate and complete descriptions to help customers locate and select products effectively. GSA currently maintains product descriptions for NSN-identified items and expects contractors to cooperate in providing acceptable descriptions for part-numbered items. When applicable, contractors should load robust descriptions into GSA Advantage! that accurately describe the item and its key attributes, with a focus on enabling informed buying decisions.
