About this award

The Office of the Secretary of Defense awarded a $15.4 million firm fixed-price definitive contract to Fedwriters, Inc. (FWI), a Fairfax, Virginia-based SBA-certified 8(a) small disadvantaged business, to provide training and assistance support services to the National Guard Youth Challenge Program (NGYCP) and the Department of Defense STARBASE Program. The contract, awarded on July 2, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 9, 2030, was competitively procured through a total small business set-aside and was originated through the Washington Headquarters Service. The National Guard Youth Challenge Program is a Department of Defense initiative designed to help at-risk youth gain academic skills, discipline, and leadership training, while STARBASE provides science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education and career exploration to middle school students at military installations nationwide.

Under this contract, Fedwriters will deliver administrative and professional support services, including training program development and assessment support across both youth-oriented initiatives. Fedwriters, which specializes in technical writing, policy documentation, training development, and administrative support services, is well-positioned to support these missions through its extensive experience serving multiple federal agencies and its established capabilities in educational program support. The contractor maintains a robust portfolio of indefinite delivery vehicles across government-wide acquisition contracts and agency-specific vehicles, enabling it to integrate specialized subcontractor capabilities and deliver integrated professional and technical services tailored to the Department of Defense's requirements.
