The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC), known as Support Which Implements Fast Transition 5 (SWIFT 5), to Chemonics International, Inc. The $2.5 billion, 5-year IDIQ contract provides flexible, quick-response programming and long-term technical assistance to support USAID's Office of Transition Initiatives in responding to complex political crises worldwide. The contract has no small business set-aside and allows USAID to rapidly procure Chemonics' development expertise through task orders for activities promoting stability, peace, and democracy in countries experiencing political turmoil. Task orders awarded under SWIFT 5 include a $35.2 million cost-plus-fixed-fee order to establish a mechanism supporting democracy and stability in El Salvador, a $256 million order for the Ukraine Confidence Building Initiative 4 program, and other orders for work in Belarus, Myanmar, Iraq, Libya, and Sudan. Chemonics, a prominent international development consulting firm, will leverage its global capabilities to provide technical assistance, advisory services, capacity building, and direct implementation in support of U.S. foreign policy objectives under this IDIQ contract.
