About this IDV

The contract is set aside for total small business.
The IDIQ is intended to receive objective, available non-housing cost data for each CONUS and OCONUS duty location annually from the private sector, with data purchased as required, enabling the Department of Defense to establish COLA rates for both CONUS and OCONUS programs. Place of performance is Santa Barbara, California.
The period of performance runs from award through August 24, 2030. Under this IDIQ, the Defense Human Resources Activity issued a $512,236 firm fixed-price delivery order on March 9, 2026, due March 8, 2027, to collect and analyze non-housing cost data for CONUS and OCONUS duty locations under total small business set-aside. A second delivery order for $512,236, awarded August 27, 2025 and due August 26, 2026, was issued under no set-aside to support the same COLA rate establishment objective. Both delivery orders specify performance in Santa Barbara, California.
