About this IDV

The U.S. Department of State's Foreign Service Institute (FSI) awarded a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) to Simon Everett LTD, a for-profit subchapter S corporation, to provide area studies courses and related facilitation services. The BPA has a total ceiling value of approximately $2 million and contemplates additional single award task orders through 2025. The contract aims to leverage Simon Everett LTD's expertise in international affairs and diplomatic training to strengthen the development of Foreign Service personnel through services such as facilitating training courses, coordinating curriculum delivery, conducting market assessments, and performing program evaluations. The BPA does not have a set-aside designation and the task orders are concentrated in Arlington, Virginia. Past task orders under this and other prime contracts awarded to Simon Everett LTD by the FSI, United States Trade and Development Agency, and US Agency for Global Media have totaled over $2 million.

The original solicitation was set aside for total small businesses and sought a single BPA firm fixed price award with performance-based standards to support the FSI's mission of effectively training American diplomats. The 5-year BPA contract awarded to Simon Everett LTD in February 2020 has resulted in multiple task orders, including a $545,650 task order for area studies courses in FY 2025, a $542,100 task order for course facilitation services through September 2024, a $573,970 task order for training, consulting, and facilitation services through September 2023, and a $392,471.10 task order for regional, sub-regional and global area studies through January 2022.
