The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) awarded a $23 billion Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, the Integrated Critical Staffing Program (ICSP), to multiple service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs). The ICSP IDIQ enables the VA to issue task orders for temporary clinical and non-clinical staffing support at VA facilities nationwide.
Under this IDIQ contract, the VA has issued several delivery orders to the prime contractor, Arrow Arc LLC, a SDVOSB. These task orders include $7.9 million for social worker services, $5.8 million for registered nurses and nurse assistants, $3.6 million for general staffing support, $648,812 for demand response staffing in Iowa, and $50,000 for onboarding support services. Arrow Arc LLC has also received other significant VA contracts, including a $47.7 million award for recruitment marketing and advertising services, as well as government-wide IDIQ contracts through the GSA's OASIS+ program. The original ICSP solicitation was set aside for SDVOSBs and aims to provide the VA with flexible, on-demand access to critical personnel across its healthcare system.
