Water trucking and delivery services contract

The Department of State Bureau of African Affairs established an Indefinite Delivery Contract with a ceiling value of $2.484 million for water trucking and delivery services supporting U.S. diplomatic operations in Monrovia, Liberia. The contract, awarded on March 1, 2020 to Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees (UEI: LN9PU5M2YZN5), operates as a multiple-award vehicle through September 30, 2025, with no socioeconomic set-asides applied. The primary place of performance is Enterprise Square at the corner of Front and Nelson Streets in Monrovia, Liberia, serving the U.S. Embassy compounds and related diplomatic facilities. Miscellaneous Foreign Awardees is a Washington, D.C.-based foreign entity that provides comprehensive administrative, logistical, and operational support services to federal agencies, with substantial experience delivering complex support solutions across various diplomatic contexts. The contract procures essential water transportation and delivery logistics to ensure reliable access to potable water for U.S. government personnel and operations in Liberia, a country where local water utility infrastructure may be limited or unreliable, making trucked water delivery a critical utility service.

From March 2020 through June 2025, the Bureau of African Affairs issued approximately 45 delivery orders against this Indefinite Delivery Contract, with individual task order values ranging from approximately $6,000 to $175,000 and performance periods typically spanning one to three months. All delivery orders were awarded on a firm fixed-price basis without socioeconomic set-asides, reflecting the vendor's status as a foreign entity and the competitive nature of the procurement. Notable task orders include multi-month contracts covering calendar quarters or extended periods, such as a $174,152.50 order for April through June 2022 and a $168,365 order for January 2022 with an extended completion date. The consistent pattern of monthly or multi-month task order issuances demonstrates the ongoing operational requirement for water trucking services at the embassy facility, with cumulative task order values substantially approaching the contract ceiling throughout the performance period, indicating robust utilization of the indefinite delivery vehicle for supporting U.S. diplomatic mission infrastructure in West Africa.
