About this IDV
The Institute of Education Sciences awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract to Development Services Group, Inc. with a $2 billion ceiling on February 28, 2023. Development Services Group, Inc. is a women-owned small business.
The IDIQ supports the Institute's research, evaluation, and statistics mission across five scope categories: education sciences support activities, assessment development support, communications and outreach, recruitment, and operational support. Task orders are issued without set-aside restrictions at the vehicle level, though individual orders may carry small business set-asides. The contract runs through February 27, 2028.
The originating solicitation sought multiple indefinite delivery vehicles to replace the incumbent Education Statistics Service Institute Network contract and expand the Institute's procurement capacity. The pre-solicitation, posted March 3, 2022, identified the five scope categories and invited vendors to demonstrate capabilities and past performance in their respective categories. Industry days were held April 21 and 26, 2022.
Recent task-order activity includes a $2.69 million delivery order awarded September 30, 2025, set aside for small business. The order funds a descriptive study examining federal regulatory and accreditation compliance costs for higher education institutions, performed in Washington, DC with completion by March 31, 2030. This work supports the Office of Postsecondary Education's evidence-based policy development mission.
