This is a five-year, $24.2 million cost-plus-fixed-fee contract awarded by the U.S. Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences (IES) to Mathematica Inc., a for-profit research and data analytics consultancy. The contract is for the provision of Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) services across a designated region, supporting applied research, evaluations, technical assistance, and dissemination activities.
The contract was not set aside for small businesses. Mathematica has subcontracted portions of the work to Saint Louis University, a private Jesuit research university, and RMC Research Corp, a self-certified small disadvantaged business. The REL program is authorized under the Education Sciences Reform Act and administered by IES's National Center for Education Evaluation and Regional Assistance. This contract award is associated with a larger $2 billion multiple-award indefinite delivery vehicle (IDV) from IES to support research, evaluation, and statistics activities.
