The Department of State Bureau of Political Military Affairs (DOS) awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) under the Africa Contingency Operations and Training Assistance 2 (ACOTA 2) program. The contract, with a potential value of $600,600,000, is set aside partially for small businesses and allows the agency to order training, equipment, logistical and technical support, and construction services for African peacekeeping forces and organizations.
Celestar Corporation, a minority-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned small business, is one of the prime contractors on this IDC. Under a $921,250.47 firm-fixed-price delivery order, Celestar will provide potable water container equipment in Zambia, with performance from September 2022 to August 2023. This contract award builds on Celestar's experience providing subject matter expertise, program advisory, and other professional services to the Department of State to support law enforcement capacity building programs both domestically and abroad.
