SAO Strategy & Analytical Support Services

The contract seeks a contractor to provide comprehensive Strategy, Program/Project Management, and Analytic Support Services to the Senior Administrative Office (SAO) within the Office of the Director of Administration and Management (ODA&M) at Washington Headquarters Services in Washington, D.C. The contractor is responsible for furnishing all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, materials, supervision, and non-personal services necessary to fulfill the scope of work, excluding only government-furnished property and services. Performance is required at government-provided office space in the National Capital Region, with potential for work at alternate locations during emergencies. The work involves delivering error-free strategic documents, program management artifacts, analytical data visualizations, administrative correspondence, talking points, and support for CATMS package adjudications, all subject to a zero-defect performance standard across five key performance requirements. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price task order under an IDIQ vehicle with a 12-month base period and four optional 12-month extension years, for a total potential value of $8 million to $9 million over five years. All contractor personnel must hold active Secret security clearances, and the firm itself must possess a validated Secret facility clearance at the time of proposal submission—the government does not sponsor clearances. Key personnel, including a Senior Project Manager with a bachelor’s degree and ten years of experience, require prior written approval for any replacement. Contractors must sign NDAs, comply with strict organizational conflict of interest prohibitions, and adhere to FAR and DFARS data rights clauses regarding government information and technical data. The contractor is required to implement a Quality Control Program, while the government employs a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan to enforce strict acceptance criteria based on timeliness and accuracy. Subcontracting is permitted with reporting obligations for small business participation, and all submissions must be via email in Word or PDF format, limited to a 10-page capabilities statement including a three-page synopsis. The solicitation, issued under NAICS code 541611, is a sources-sought notice with a response deadline of August 24, 2026, and procurement is anticipated to follow an Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) evaluation approach with no trade-off between cost and technical merit.
