35 -- INVITATION TO INDUSTRY FORUM -- HARDWARESUPERSTORE Dear Valued Partner: The Hardware & Appliances Center is expanding. To further our expansion, a major effort is currently underway to implement changes to the Multiple Award Federal Supply Schedules. In order to keep you up to date on these changes, and to receive your input to our proposed changes, we are conducting a GSA industry forum. This forum will highlight the major changes being proposed and provide updates on other topics such as "GSA Advantage!", JWOD, UNICOR, SBA, Electronic Invoicing, Electronic Posting System. We will also be introducing our newest lineup of service contracting, Preparation and Application of Chemical Compounds "PACC(WORLD)", and the "Beautification Center", which will include grounds maintenance, pesticide application, tree trimming and removal, and snow removal. For your convenience, an invitation to our forum is enclosed. Your attendance at this forum is of utmost importance to us, and we encourage your full participation. Through our relationship over the years, our discussions have shown that it would be both advantageous and beneficial to you and our customers, to simplify our buying process. This will be accomplished by reorganizing our existing multiple award Federal Supply Schedules 37 II A, 41 I, 51 B, 51 V, 80 I A, and 80 III A, and consolidating them into a single schedule under the: HardwareSuperstore Specific information on these proposed changes and the items included in each grouping will be posted on our new Internet website which is http://pub.fss.gsa.gov/HardwareSuperstore. You may soon view the proposed changes by clicking on our drop-down menu in the category "What's New?", or a copy of the proposed changes once available may be obtained via written request at the telefax number stated below. Our website will be interactive and we do encourage your input to our proposed changes via "comments and suggestions". However, if you prefer, you may telefax your comments to (816) 823-3109.
