About this award
This contract modification represents the termination for government convenience of a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call under the Program Analysis and Evaluation (PA&E) program administered by the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO). The BPA call, valued at $267,306.71 on a firm fixed-price basis, was awarded to Optimal Solutions Group, LLC (doing business as Optimal Research Group) on July 5, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of September 7, 2023. The contract was issued without a set-aside designation and performed at the contractor's location in Berwyn Heights, Maryland. The specific effort involved evaluation services related to the Asylum Processing Rule (APR), which falls within DHS's broader immigration enforcement and processing initiatives.
Optimal Solutions Group is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business with extensive experience providing research, analysis, and evaluation services across multiple federal agencies, including DHS, the Small Business Administration, the Department of Education, and the Department of Labor. The company holds several significant indefinite delivery vehicles, including a $99 million Department of Labor BPA and a $30 million DHS BPA for program analysis and evaluation services, demonstrating substantial capacity in government evaluation and policy analysis work. The termination of this particular call represents a shift in procurement strategy or mission priorities rather than contractor performance issues, as evidenced by the government's explicit statement of termination for convenience.
