The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a civilian federal agency, awarded PCI Government Services LLC, a tribally-owned and SBA-certified 8(a) small disadvantaged business, an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) worth up to $25 million for programmatic support services. Under this IDC, NIST has issued two major task orders to PCI: a $6.61 million order for surge support services and a $20.87 million order for programmatic support related to NIST's CHIPS semiconductor initiative. These task orders, which do not have socioeconomic set-asides, have periods of performance through April 2025 and will be performed at NIST's location in Herndon, Virginia. The contracted services aim to provide NIST with professional staffing support as well as programmatic assistance for its measurement science, standards, and technology programs, particularly the CHIPS initiative. This demonstrates NIST's strategy of leveraging long-term contract vehicles with qualified small business partners to meet its specialized service requirements.
