About this IDV
The 8(a) STARS III Government Wide Acquisition Contract is a multiple-award GWAC issued by the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service on July 2, 2021, with a ceiling value of $50 billion and an ultimate completion date of July 1, 2026. This contract vehicle was established as a competitive 8(a) set-aside, making it available exclusively to SBA-certified 8(a) Program Participants as prime contractors. Infostellar Inc., a woman-owned small business and SBA-certified economically disadvantaged women-owned small business (8(a) status active through May 21, 2030), was awarded as one of the multiple prime contractors on this vehicle. The 8(a) STARS III GWAC is designed to provide federal agencies government-wide access to a pre-established contract vehicle through which they can place task orders for services and solutions, thereby streamlining the procurement process for civilian agencies and reducing the burden of individual competitive solicitations.
While specific task orders, detailed performance locations, and precise product and service descriptions are not provided in the available documentation, the 8(a) STARS III GWAC framework typically enables federal agencies to procure professional services, information technology solutions, consulting, and other support services from certified small business contractors. The contract's implementation includes adherence to GSA Class Deviation RFO-2025-16, which may impose specific procedural or compliance requirements on the contract vehicle. The pre-solicitation for this award opportunity was posted on June 22, 2020, with award occurring approximately one year later, indicating a competitive evaluation process. Through this multiple-award GWAC structure, the government sought to expand opportunities for small businesses, particularly women-owned and 8(a)-certified firms, while establishing an efficient procurement mechanism for federal agencies requiring flexible, task-order-based service delivery.
