About this IDV

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The National Institute of Standards and Technology awarded a competitive 8(a) single-award IDIQ to Fedwriters, Inc. on September 25, 2024, with a ceiling of $54.95 million for scientific, technical, and engineering support services across NIST sites. Fedwriters is an SBA-certified 8(a) minority-owned small disadvantaged business based in Fairfax, Virginia.

The contract supports basic to complex scientific requirements spanning engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, measurement science, nuclear science, forensic science, and environmental science. Primary performance occurs at NIST's Gaithersburg, Maryland and Boulder, Colorado facilities, with work extending to partner sites as needed. The period of performance runs from the September 25, 2024 award through September 24, 2027, comprising a one-year base period plus four one-year option periods.

Originating from a solicitation posted December 4, 2023 (SAM.gov 1333ND23RNB630023), the IDIQ was structured as a 100-percent set-aside for certified 8(a) small businesses with a $19 million size standard. NIST anticipated issuing over 300 firm-fixed-price task orders over the vehicle's life.

Since award, Fedwriters has executed substantial task-order activity under this IDIQ. Recent notable orders include a $1.2 million NVLAP Calibration Support order (through April 2031, Gaithersburg), a $440.68 thousand Neutron Activation Analysis support order (January 2029, Gaithersburg) with Strativia LLC as subcontractor, and multiple mass spectrometry library and cryptography standardization orders valued between $244 thousand and $395 thousand each. The contractor has also fulfilled orders for location-based services in Boulder and Fairfax, UX/AR support, wireless channel modeling for wearables, dual-capillary viscometer assembly, polymeric materials analysis, OSAC technical standards enhancement, UAS research support, and forensic science program support. Performance locations span Fairfax, Gaithersburg, Boulder, and Bethesda, with task order pricing structured on firm fixed-price basis.
