About this IDV

The 8(a) STARS III Government Wide Acquisition Contract is a multiple-award GWAC established by the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service to provide information technology and professional services to federal agencies. Awarded to Abscus Inc., an SBA-certified 8(a) Program Participant and Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business, on June 28, 2022, this contract carries a ceiling value of $50 billion and extends through July 1, 2026. The contract was established under a competitive 8(a) set-aside procurement vehicle, originating from a pre-solicitation opportunity posted in June 2020 with an initial award date of July 2, 2021. The GWAC is structured to leverage GSA's purchasing authority to streamline federal procurement across civilian agencies, with implementation governed by Class Deviation RFO-2025-16.

As a government-wide acquisition vehicle, the 8(a) STARS III GWAC enables federal agencies to place task orders for a broad spectrum of information technology consulting, systems integration, software development, and professional services. The contract's architecture supports flexible procurement arrangements allowing agencies to compete requirements among multiple awardees or issue orders directly to Abscus Inc. based on established pricing and terms. The $50 billion ceiling accommodates the anticipated government-wide demand for these services across the contract period, with the 8(a) set-aside designation ensuring that procurement benefits small businesses certified under the Small Business Administration's 8(a) Business Development Program while promoting competition and expanding opportunities for economically disadvantaged entrepreneurs.
