Solicitation # HQ003426QE242
Washington Headquarters Services is soliciting a Firm Fixed Price, no-cost contract under NAICS 561920 to provide non-personal support services for the planning, execution, and reporting of the annual Defense Manufacturing Focused Conference (DMFC) and Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortage (DMSMS) Symposium. The contract spans a five-year period of performance from November 5, 2026, to November 4, 2031. The selected contractor will be responsible for organizing a four-day annual event for 1,400 to 2,400 attendees and approximately 200 exhibitors, facilitating the exchange of information on defense manufacturing policies and innovations. Because this is a no-cost award, the government bears no financial liability or reimbursement responsibility. The contractor must develop a comprehensive financial plan to recoup costs through attendee registration fees and sponsorship tiers, which will be evaluated for realism and market competitiveness via a required Compensation Matrix. Key personnel requirements include an Audio Visual Coordinator with at least five years of experience. Due to the sensitive nature of the work, the contractor must adhere to strict security protocols, including signing Non-Disclosure Agreements and providing detailed Organizational and Personal Conflict of Interest disclosures. Award decisions will be based on a combined technical and risk rating, prioritizing technical approach and past performance over the compensation model.
