Government Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) 47QTCB22D0675

The 8(a) STARS III Governmentwide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) is a multiple-award contract administered by the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service. This $50 billion GWAC enables federal agencies to obtain IT solutions and services from 8(a) certified small businesses like Ennoble First - Macro Solutions, LLC (doing business as Efms). Efms, a minority-owned, small disadvantaged business, has received several delivery orders under the STARS III GWAC. This includes a $4,144,625.61 time and materials delivery order from the Department of State Bureau of Intelligence and Research for geographer and global issues professional consulting services, with a period of performance through November 2026. Additionally, Efms holds a $500,000 Federal Supply Schedule contract for IT professional services, cloud computing, and earth observation solutions, as well as other agency-specific task orders demonstrating its ability to deliver diverse IT services across the federal government.

The 8(a) STARS III GWAC was established through a competitive 8(a) set-aside solicitation to provide IT services and IT services-based solutions to federal agencies. The GWAC supports customized solutions tailored to agencies' unique mission needs, including emerging technologies. It does not include specific NAICS-coded functional areas, but allows for a wide range of eligible IT services such as data management, software development, and IT system design. The $50 billion ceiling value of the STARS III GWAC is intended to be drawn down as agencies place orders through the contract vehicle.
