The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with a ceiling value of $475,000,000 to Linc LLC, a for-profit limited liability company, under the Active Communities - Effective States (ACES) IDIQ contract. The ACES IDIQ enables USAID to issue task orders for technical assistance, advisory services, and program implementation in support of good governance, transparency, and accountability initiatives globally. The original ACES solicitation sought proposals for approximately eight IDIQ contracts to provide services across areas such as democracy and governance, public administration, elections, rule of law, and grants administration. Five of the eight IDIQ contracts were set aside for small businesses, though no set-aside designation is specified for this particular award to Linc LLC. The period of performance for the ACES IDIQ is five years, with a total maximum value of $225 million. Linc LLC has demonstrated expertise in monitoring, evaluation, and learning services for USAID's international development programs, including conducting evaluations and establishing monitoring platforms across multiple sectors and regions. The company has also participated in federal grant-funded projects as both a prime recipient and subrecipient.
