This is a $473,400.00 firm-fixed-price purchase order contract awarded by the U.S. government to Ivy Planning Group LLC, a woman-owned small business, for a 12-month period of performance from September 25, 2024 to September 24, 2025. The contract, titled "BUILDING A GREAT PLACE TO WORK", is for Ivy Planning Group to provide diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) consulting services to the government. This includes DEIA assessments, training programs, technical assistance, and strategic planning to help government agencies promote fairness, remove barriers, and create inclusive work environments.
The contract was not set aside for any specific business category. However, Ivy Planning Group is certified as an SBA Women-Owned Small Business and self-certified as a Small Disadvantaged Business, which likely contributed to their selection. Ivy Planning Group has significant experience providing DEIA-related services to federal agencies, including the USDA Food and Nutrition Service, NIH National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, and U.S. District Courts, among others. The company holds two large DEIA-focused Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPAs) with the USDA and NIH, worth $25 million and $30 million respectively, that showcase its capabilities in this domain.
