Historical GSA SmartPay Information The GSA SmartPay® Program is the largest government charge card and related payment solutions program in the world. The Program has more than three million Purchase, Travel, Fleet, and Integrated accounts and supports more than 560 agencies/organizations. Since the award of the inaugural GSA
SmartPay® Master Contract in 1998, the GSA SmartPay Program has provided convenient, efficient, and effective payment solutions for the Federal Government, Tribes and Tribal Organizations with a comprehensive portfolio of payment solutions including Purchase, Travel, Fleet, and Integrated charge card services.
The GSA SmartPay Program was further expanded with the award of the GSA SmartPay 2 Master
Contract in 2007. The GSA SmartPay 2 Master Contract required additional payment solutions beyond traditional carded products as well as increased data analysis, reporting capabilities, and security requirements. The GSA SmartPay Program has continued to grow through increased adoption as agencies/organizations realize benefits afforded under the program, such as ease of use, transaction reporting, and data analytic tools. Since the start of transaction processing in 1999, GSA SmartPay
Program spend has totaled approximately $460 billion with refunds earned by customer agencies/organizations topping more than $3.3 billion.
The estimate total value for this contract action is $700 billion. The diagrams provided below displays

Historical Information - Purchase Business Line
The Federal Government piloted the Purchase Card Program in 1986 with 24 Federal agencies. Based on that success, Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requested that GSA acquire and provide purchase card services on a government-wide basis. The first contract was competitively awarded in
1989 and the second contract was competitively awarded in 1994. The commercial purchase card business line was integrated into the first GSA SmartPay Master Contract, awarded February 10, 1998 and continued through GSA Smart Pay 2, which was awarded on June 7, 2007. The GSA SmartPay website includes historic and current program data illustrating spend, transaction, and account growth of the GSA SmartPay purchase business line, found at: https://smartpay.gsa.gov.

Fiscal Year Transactions https://smartpay.gsa.gov/
Figure 1: Purchase Spend and Transactions by Fiscal Year
Historical Information - Travel Business Line
From 1983 to 1998, GSA contracted for a travel and transportation payment and expense control system for official travel expenses. The system consisted of Individually Billed Accounts (IBA) with and without automated teller machine (ATM) access, Centrally Billed Accounts (CBAs), and traveler’s checks for official use for domestic and international travel and travel-related expenses. Agency/organizations used non-commercial payment practices to implement stand-alone travel programs prior to the GSA SmartPay
Program. Many agencies/organizations used cumbersome government transportation request (GTR) processes requiring significant control mechanisms, leading to excessive costs and implementation inconsistencies forcing customers to rely on GTRs to verify government-rate airfares. The GSA SmartPay
Travel Card Program was included in the GSA SmartPay Master Contract, awarded on February 10, 1998. The GSA SmartPay 2 Master Contract, awarded June 7, 2007, continued the travel charge card business line. The GSA SmartPay website includes historic and current program data illustrating spend, transaction, and account growth of the GSA SmartPay business lines, found at: https://smartpay.gsa.gov.
Figure 2: Travel Spend and Transactions by Fiscal Year
Historical Information - Integrated Business Line
Under the GSA SmartPay 2 Master Contract, the Department of the Interior requested implementation of an Integrated payment program. Through a collaborative effort across traditional program lines, Purchase, Travel, and Fleet were combined creating the largest Integrated charge card program in either the public or private sector. A task order was awarded for all three business lines (Purchase, Travel, and
Fleet) to a single contractor in order to implement an Integrated business line. This allowed the possibility an integrated process for this agency from the beginning and the option to move to an Integrated program further into the contract’s period of performance. The Integrated business line also included other payment solutions as allowed under the scope of work and ordered by the Department of Interior. The
Integrated business line averages $650 Million in spend with over ninety thousand transactions, annually.
Historical Information - Fleet Business Line
In October of 1996, GSA issued a solicitation for commercial fleet payment solution services. That contract was awarded on December 27, 1996. The GSA SmartPay Fleet Card Program was included in the GSA SmartPay Master Contract, awarded on February 10, 1998. The GSA SmartPay 2 Program, awarded on June 7, 2007, continued the Fleet business line. The GSA SmartPay website includes historic and current program data illustrating spend, transaction, and account growth of the GSA
SmartPay Fleet business line, found at: https://smartpay.gsa.gov.
Figure 3: Fleet Spend and Transactions by Fiscal Year
Historical Information by Task Order
Agencies/organizations shall provide additional historical information (e.g. average billing cycle length, volume of spend, speed of pay) at the task order level. Contractors shall propose task order level pricing based upon the additional information provided.
Pricing Categories
Refunds
B.2.1.1 Master Contract Minimum Refunds
The Government has established minimum refunds by Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) and business line. As found in B.4 Pricing Schedules the minimum refunds are a single rate which considers both volume of spend and speed of pay historically found under the GSA SmartPay Program. Minimums may vary by CLIN and business line. Offerors must adhere to the minimum refund structure when proposing under the Master Contract. Alternate proposals will not be considered at the master contract level. Failure to propose in accordance with the instructions contained in this Request for Proposal (RFP) may render the proposal non-responsive. See B.2.2 Product and Service Offerings: Not Separately Priced (NSP).
B.2.1.2 Task Order Level Refunds
When requested by the agency/organization at the task order level, Contractors must break out the components of their single refund rate for transparency purposes. The breakout shall show the portion of the single refund rate associated with the minimum refund under the Master Contract and the portion associated with any assumptions related to historical and/or projected payment information, such as agency/organization spend volume or speed of pay. See B.1.5 Historical Information by Task Order for further details.
Agencies/organizations may require the Contractor to offer tiered pricing with separate single refund amounts. Request and acceptance of such a schedule is at the sole discretion of the agency/organization. The Contractor shall not propose, nor shall the agency/organization request or award, separate sales and productivity refunds, to include calculations based on file turn formulas for separate speed of pay. Volume of spend and speed of pay must be reflected in a single refund amount by
CLIN/sub-CLIN at the task order level. Contractors shall not propose less than the minimum refund awarded in the Master Contract at the task order level.
Task orders shall include specific terms and conditions to address the event that an agency/organization fails to make payment consistent with the payment performance assumptions used as a basis for the task order level refund(s) awarded.
Product and Service Offerings: Not Separately Priced (NSP)
All business lines include Standard Transactions, Large Ticket Transactions, and ePayable – Supplier
Initiated Payments as separate refunds listed under Tier 1 CLINs. For these CLINs and all associated sub-CLINs, Offerors shall propose a refund amount no less than the minimum stated that takes into account all costs associated with meeting the RFP requirements.
Figure 4: Standard Transaction Requirements by Business Line is provided to illustrate what contract requirements, by business line, shall be included in pricing of standard transactions, large ticket transactions, and ePayable – Supplier Initiated Payments (and any associated sub-CLINs), as applicable.
Large ticket requirements shall also adhere to requirements outlined below and coincide with commercial treatment of large ticket transactions (see C.1 Definitions). Listed requirements include corresponding subsections, herein:

Offerors shall not individually price any costs associated with not separately priced requirements that are a part of the pricing of Tier 1 products and services unless a separate CLIN is expressly provided under
B.4 Pricing Schedules for such purposes. Contractors are encouraged to submit their best pricing in initial offer(s). Failure to provide a price on a Tier 1 CLIN or sub-CLIN as part of any business line for the base or any option period shall render the offer non-responsive.
Product and Service Offerings: Separately Priced
Business lines also may include Tier 1 CLINs for fee-based products and services such as convenience checks, ATM access, and Non-Interchange Based Government-to-Government transactions. Fees shall be expressed as a maximum hourly rate, maximum fixed fee, or net basis points (as applicable). Offerors are encouraged to submit their best pricing in the initial offer(s), as the Government may award without discussions. Failure to provide a price on a separately priced Tier 1 CLIN as part of any business line for the base or any option period shall render the offer non-responsive.
All business lines include a list of optional CLINs for Tier 2 Value-Added Product and Service Offerings.
Offerors shall not propose or be awarded any Tier 2 CLINs for any business line without also being awarded Tier 1 CLINs under the same business line. Proposing on Tier 2 products and services is at the sole discretion of the Offeror. Acceptance of Tier 2 CLINs for award is at the sole discretion of the
Government. For all Tier 2 CLINs, Offerors shall propose their separately priced minimum refund, maximum hourly rate, or maximum fixed fee/net basis points (as applicable) for the specific product or service offered. Offerors shall not include any not separately priced costs required to be included in Tier 1 product or service offerings under Tier 2 pricing; doing so may render the offer non-responsive.
B.2.3.1 Non-Interchange Based CLINs
Tier 1 and Tier 2 CLINs may include product and service offerings which do not generate interchange and do not produce refunds to the agencies/organizations. If a type of transaction is not specifically identified as non-interchange based, it is expected that interchange and refunds, regardless of the amount, are generated. If the Contractor charges an agency/organization a flat fee per transaction for these types of solutions, the Contractor shall provide GSA with a Contract Access Fee in accordance with G.1 GSA
Contract Access Fee.
Refunds: Calculation, Payments and Remittance Offerors shall, at a minimum, provide pricing for all Tier 1 CLINs in each business line included under each proposal option, for the base and all option periods, as set forth on the tables in B.4 Pricing
Schedules. Refund shall be calculated in accordance with B.3.3 Calculation of Refunds (See B.3.2 GSA
Contract Access Fee (CAF)1 for further information). Offerors shall propose separate minimum refunds for each business line based on a 30-day billing cycle at the master contract level. Agencies/organizations shall have the option to choose the frequency of the billing cycle at the task order level. Standard rounding practices shall be used when determining refunds.2
Frequency of Refund Remittance
The Federal Government’s Fiscal Year (FY) begins October 1st and ends September 30th. The
Contractor shall remit refunds electronically to the agency/organization by the 15th calendar day of each
FY Quarter following each reporting period (e.g. January 15th, April 15th, July 15th, October 15th), unless otherwise specified by the agency/organization. The GSA CAF shall be deducted from gross refunds and remitted to GSA in accordance with B.3.2 GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF) and G.1 GSA Contract
Access Fee (CAF). If the 15th calendar day of a FY Quarter falls on a weekend or Federal Government holiday, payment shall be remitted by the next business day.
Refunds shall be remitted by the Contractor to the highest hierarchy level of the agency/organization, unless otherwise specified by the agency/organization at the task order level. Refund remittance shall align to and conform to the provisions outlined in Government Charge Card Abuse Prevention Act of 2012
(P.L. 112-194) and Office of Management and Budget Circular A-123 Appendix B: Improving
Management of Government Charge Card Programs, or subsequent revisions thereto.
Agencies/organizations may require more frequent refund remittance schedules (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly) and will specify and request pricing for requirements at the task order level. In accordance with the Prompt Payment Act (P.L. 97-177), an agency/organization may establish procedures within a task order to charge and collect compensation from the Contractor for late refund payments.
B.3.1.1 Initial Refund Remittance
Unless otherwise stated in the agency/organization task order, the first agency/organization refund remittance payment is due by the 15th calendar day of the FY Quarter following the first transactional period of performance.
B.3.1.2 Fourth Quarter Refund Remittance
The Contractor shall remit FY Quarter Four (Q4) refund payments in the same manner as previous quarters, unless specified otherwise at the agency/organization task order level. In order for agencies/organizations to take advantage of refunds, the timing of sales refunds shall account for the
Federal Government’s year end processing, as applicable.
B.3.1.2.1 Estimated Fourth Quarter Refunds
An agency’s/organization’s fiscal policy may prohibit acceptance of previous FY refunds in a subsequent
FY. If an agency/organization requires refund payments to be made in the same FY in which they are earned, the Contractor shall estimate and remit the fourth FY quarter refund payment based on the agency’s/organization’s previous FY’s fourth quarter transaction activity. For programs with no prior Q4 transaction activity, the refund for the fourth quarter of the first year of the task order shall be based on the agency’s/organization’s refund calculation for the third quarter, unless otherwise specified by the customer. In the case of the first year of performance where there is no previous year's refund by the
1Note: The term "Industrial Funding Fee (IFF)" has changed to "Contract Access Fee (CAF)" as a result of the Transactional Data Reporting rule issued by GSA in June 2016.
2For this purpose, standard rounding means < 5 shall be rounded down, and >= 5 shall be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

Contractor available upon which to estimate, the Contractor shall use the refund received under the previous (out-going) Contractor to estimate remittance.
The fourth quarter refund payment shall be remitted to the agency/organization by August 15th, at the same time as third quarter refund payments are made, unless otherwise specified by the agency/organization. During the first quarter of the next FY, the Contractor shall adjust the refund payment to reflect any discrepancies between the estimated refund amount and the earned refund amount that was overpaid or underpaid to the customer agency/organization for the previous fourth quarter. This amount shall be reported and remitted/adjusted by the 15th day of the first quarter of the next
FY. A negative/incorrect balance from either party will require the agency/organization and contractor come to an agreement on how that remittance will be made as part of task order closeout procedures.
GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF)
The GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF) serves to cover GSA’s costs charged to agencies/organizations in providing and administering the GSA SmartPay Program. The GSA CAF shall be a set number of basis points applied against the net charge volume to be deducted from gross refunds, as determined by the
Center for Charge Card Management (CCCM) in accordance with G.1 GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF).
For transactions processed under ePayables CLINs (both Tier 1 and Tier 2), the Contractor shall remit and deduct GSA CAF in the amount of 2 basis points of gross refunds or 6 cents per transaction, when ordered at the agency/organization task order level. CAF shall be determined and remitted in accordance with G.1 GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF).
Calculation of Refunds
For the purposes of refunds, refunds will be calculated and aggregated for quarterly remittance, by:
a) Determining net charge volume (Step 1);
b) Identifying convenience check spend from net charge volume (Step 2);
c) Determining the gross credit losses (Step 2);
d) Subtracting convenience check spend3 and gross credit losses from net charge volume to determine refund eligible net charge volume (Step 2); and
e) Calculating gross refund and GSA CAF to determine net refund amount (Step 3)
Refund Example
The following is an example of a quarter’s activity. Refund eligible net sales volume represents all activity from a given quarter, and this may include adjustments, credits and fees that originated from transactions from a prior quarter:
Step 1: Determine Net Charge Volume.
Purchases $ 7,500.00
Cash Advances $ 220.00
Convenience Checks $ 500.00
Fees $ 17.00
Adjustments $ (-2.00)
Credits $ (-430.00)
Net Charge Volume $ 7,805.00
3 Convenience check spend is not included in refund eligible net charge volume.
Step 2: Determine Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume.
Net Charge Volume $ 7,805.00
Convenience Check Spend $ (-500.00)
Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume $ 7,305.00
Step 3: Calculated Net Refunds
Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume $ 7,305.00
Gross Refund ($7,305 x 0.01065) $ 77.80
GSA Contract Access Fee ($7,305 x 0.00065) $ (-4.75)
Net Refund $ 73.05
NOTES:
1. This example assumes that the task order net refund included 100 basis points. The GSA CAF amount used in this example is set to the maximum allowable under the Master Contract (6.5 basis points). See G.1 GSA Contract Access Fee for more details.
2. The Gross Refund is determined by multiplying the Net Charge Volume multiplied by the sum of task order net refund (100 bps) and the GSA CAF (6.5 bps).
3. Total of $4.75 in GSA CAF (refund eligible net charge volume times 6.5 basis points) from the Gross
Refund would be due to GSA for the reporting period. See B.3.2 GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF).
4. A net refund of $73.05 (Gross Refund multiplied by 100 basis points less 6.5 basis points GSA CAF, as calculated above) would be due to the agency/organization for the reporting period. See B.3.1
Frequency of Refund Remittance.
Refund Offsets on Travel IBA Refunds
If net credit losses on Travel Individually Billed Accounts (IBAs) during the reporting period are greater than or equal to 30 basis points (bp) of Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume (Step 1 in the example below), refunds for Travel IBAs shall be calculated as outlined below. Otherwise, Travel IBA refunds shall be calculated in accordance with B.3 Refunds: Calculation, Payments and Remittance.
NOTE: If net credit losses had been less than or equal to 30 basis points of refund eligible net charge volume, Travel IBA refunds would then be calculated in accordance with B.3 Refunds: Calculation, Payments and Remittance
Net credit losses, shall only be offset against refunds generated from agency/organization Travel IBA accounts. Travel IBA credit losses shall not be offset against refunds generated from Centrally Billed
Account (CBA) accounts or other business lines. The calculations shall follow this series of formulas:
1. Calculate Agency/Organization Gross Refund: (Travel IBA Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume
- Net Credit Losses ≥ 30 bp) x (Gross Basis Points) = Agency/Organization Gross Refund (Step 2)
2. Calculate Credit Loss Rate: Dividing the Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume into the dollar amount of the (Part 1 of Step 3)4:
a) Net Credit Losses greater than or equal to 30 basis points in the current reporting period;
4The rate shall be calculated at the highest hierarchy level, (e.g., Army, Navy, Air Force, agency/organization, bureau) unless otherwise required at the agency/organization task order.
b) Net Credit Losses carried over from previous reporting period, if applicable.
3. Calculate Dollars Withheld: Multiple Travel IBA Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume by Credit
Loss Rate to determine Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss (Part 2 of Step 3)
4. Calculate GSA CAF Owed: Multiple Travel IBA Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume by GSA CAF to determine CAF owed to GSA (Step 4)
5. Calculate Agency/Organization Net IBA Refund: Subtract CAF owed to GSA and Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss from Agency/Organization Gross Refund to determine
Agency/Organization Net Refund (Step 4)
If Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss for the current reporting period exceeds the agency/organization Net IBA Refunds, the Contractor may carry over the balance to offset against the agency’s/organization’s gross refunds for subsequent reporting periods.
The agency/organization shall not be liable for any refund offsets in excess of the agency’s/organization’s net refund amount, except to a refund offset carried over (as described in number 5 above). Upon task order termination or expiration, the agency/organization shall not be liable for any refund offset amounts remaining after calculating refunds and refund offsets for the final reporting period.
Offsets on Travel IBA Refunds Example
The following is an example of the quarterly activity for a Travel IBA:
Step 1: Check if net credit losses on Travel IBA during the reporting period are greater than or equal to 30 basis points of refund eligible net charge volume.
1. $900,000 (Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume) x 30 bp = $2,700
2. $3,000 (Net Credit Losses) ≥ $2,700, follow Step 2.
Step 2: Calculate Gross Refunds.
Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume $ 900,000.00
Net Credit Losses $ (-3,000.00)
Gross Refund ((900,000 – 3,000) x 0.01065) $ 9,553.05
NOTE: This example assumes that the task order award included 100 basis points. The GSA CAF in this example is set to the maximum of 6.5 basis points. See G.1 GSA Contract Access Fee (CAF) for more details.
Step 3: Calculate Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss.
1. Credit Loss Rate = $50 (carried over net credit losses) + $3,000 (Net Credit Losses)
$900,000 (Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume)
Credit Loss Rate = 0.0034
2. $900,000 (Refund Eligible Net Charge Volume) x 0.0034 (Credit Loss Rate) = $3,060 (Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss).
NOTE: This example assumes $50 of net credit losses carried over from the previous reporting period.
Insufficient Refunds
Contractors are required, regardless of agency/organization refunds during a given period, to remit the
Contract Access Fee (CAF) to GSA for the period in question. The Contractor shall work directly with agencies/organizations to collect any outstanding CAF balances due to the Contractor in the case of insufficient refunds.
Pricing Schedules The Pricing Schedule is divided into the three proposal submission options outlined in Section L, Instructions, Conditions, and Notices to Offerors, reflected in the table below.
Figure 5: Master Contract Pricing and Proposal Submissions Options by Business Line Combinations
Business Line Proposal Submission Options
Proposal Option 1 Proposal Option 2 Proposal Option 3
Purchase ✔ ✔
Travel ✔ ✔

Fleet
Pricing under each proposal submission option is further divided by contract period (base and option periods), business line, and CLIN. CLINs are numbered and grouped as either Tier 1 (Core
Requirements) Products and Service Offerings or Tier 2 (Optional) Value-Added Product and Service
Offerings under each business line. CLINs are numbered differently depending on the contract period
(base period or option periods), as illustrated below. See F.1 GSA SmartPay Contract Period of
Performance for additional information about base and option periods and the total period of performance.

Step 4: Calculate Net Refunds.
Gross Refund ((900,000 – 3,000) x 0.01065) $ 9553.05
GSA CAF ($9553.05x 0.00065) $ (-6.21)
Dollars withheld by Contractor for Credit Loss $ (-3,060)
Net Refund $ 6,486.84
Tier 1 Pricing. Not -separately priced Tier 1 CLINs have fixed units of issue and fixed minimum required refunds in terms of basis points or cents per transaction. Offerors are encouraged to propose higher than the minimum basis points required in the Master Contract Pricing Schedule. Separately priced fee-based
Tier 1 CLINs shall be proposed with fixed units of issue and no Government specified fixed maximum fee imposed by the Government. Failure to provide a price on a Tier 1 CLIN or sub-CLIN as part of any proposal option and business line, for the base or any option period, may render the offer non-responsive.
Tier 2 Pricing. Tier 2 CLINs allow Offerors to determine the specific product or service to be offered under the Tier 2 CLIN categories listed, unit of issue (i.e. face value, hourly rate by labor category, net charge volume, fixed fee, net basis points, etc.), and the maximum fee pricing structure. Tier 2 CLINs do not dictate minimum required refunds or maximum fees (as applicable). While Offerors are not required to propose Tier 2 products and/or services, Offerors are strongly encouraged to provide as many Tier 2 offerings as possible for consideration. Offerors shall not propose or be awarded any Tier 2 CLINs for any business line without also being awarded Tier 1 CLINs under the same business line.
If an Offeror proposes a Tier 2 CLIN in the base period, the same CLIN must also be offered for all option periods. Proposing on Tier 2 products and services is at the sole discretion of the Offeror. If proposing multiple products or services under a given Tier 2 CLIN, the Offeror shall number their offerings and associated pricing in accordance with the CLIN sequence shown in Figure 6: Contract Line Item Number
(CLIN) Sequence above. See below for a sample format:
