Diplomatic Courier Support Services - Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) Set-Aside
Solicitation # 19AQMM26R0376
The U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Global Acquisitions, is soliciting a total set-aside for Woman-Owned Small Business (WOSB) concerns to provide Diplomatic Courier Support Services (DCSS). The awarded contractor will provide comprehensive operational and logistic support, including qualified personnel and equipment to manage worldwide inbound and outbound courier escort services for classified pouches. This 24/7 operation supports over 260 Foreign Service posts and requires personnel to work overtime and overnight. The primary places of performance are located in Springfield, Virginia; Miami, Florida; and Sterling, Virginia. The contract is structured as a labor-hour agreement with cost-reimbursable components for surge support and other direct costs. The period of performance consists of a 12-month base period starting November 14, 2026, with four subsequent one-year option periods extending through November 13, 2031. Award is based on a best-value determination where technical and past performance factors are significantly more important than price. Technical evaluation focuses on worldwide support capabilities, staffing methodology, and the ability to manage cleared personnel, while past performance is assessed via confidence levels. Strict security requirements are in place, including the necessity for Top Secret facility clearances and TS/SCI personnel clearances. The contractor must assign a Project Manager and adhere to specific Department of State Foreign Affairs Manual (FAM) standards for escort duties and security. Proposals are due by September 16, 2026, and must be submitted in separate volumes covering administrative, technical, past performance, and pricing requirements.

Solicitation # HT001426QE038
The Defense Health Agency is soliciting a firm-fixed-price contract for courier laboratory specimen delivery services supporting the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Department of Pathology, Navy Health Clinic Patuxent River, and Joint Base Andrews. The contractor will be responsible for the pickup, transport, and delivery of laboratory specimens, blood products, and hazardous materials across the National Capital Region, including Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. The scope includes both scheduled recurring routes and 24/7 on-demand STAT emergency pickups. Key operational requirements include maintaining cold-chain integrity, providing daily dry ice for frozen specimens, and ensuring all couriers hold 49 CFR HAZMAT certifications and valid U.S. driver's licenses. Access to government installations requires RAPID Gate certification, though this is not required at the time of proposal submission. The contract is structured with a base year beginning September 20, 2026, and four subsequent 12-month option periods. This is a total small business set-aside, specifically targeting small business wholesale and economically disadvantaged women-owned small businesses. Award will be based on a simplified trade-off process evaluating three factors: a pass/fail technical approach, past performance from the last three years, and total proposed price. Proposals must include a technical narrative not exceeding three pages and two to three relevant past performance references. The final deadline for proposal submission is September 16, 2026, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.
