U.S.-Singapore Leadership Development Exchange Program

The U.S.-Singapore Leadership Development Exchange Program is a sole-source, firm-fixed-price contract awarded by the U.S. Embassy in Singapore under the Department of State, with no competitive bidding conducted due to the determination that only one source could meet the government’s specific requirements. This decision followed a published Notice of Intent to Sole Source, during which the government reviewed all timely submissions and even accepted a late capability statement as part of its market research; ultimately, no alternative provider demonstrated sufficient capacity to fulfill the program’s objectives. The contract, identified by solicitation number 19SN1026C0013 and classified under NAICS code 611430, is administered from Washington D.C. with performance located in Central Singapore. Saskia Luk serves as the primary and secondary point of contact, with inquiries directed to SGProcurementRFQ@state.gov, and the contract was formally posted on June 30, 2026. No set-aside provisions were applied, reflecting its unrestricted nature under Federal Acquisition Regulation guidelines.
