Capabilities Development Directorate for Technical and Operational Support Services (TOSS)

The United States Marine Corps established this Master IDIQ on September 9, 2023, to provide requirements analysis, systems engineering support, data management, doctrine development, and operations analysis to the Capabilities Development Directorate and Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory. The vehicle carries a shared ceiling of $99.4 million and ordering authority extends through September 7, 2028, providing approximately two years of remaining ordering time.

Activity on the IDIQ has declined materially since award. The Marine Corps issued 10 task orders in 2023, five in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026—the most recent on January 28, 2026. Eighteen total orders have been placed, obligating $12.8 million of the $36 million in combined task-order potential value, or 35 percent. The modest recent activity and relatively low obligation rate against potential value suggest the vehicle is transitioning out of active use.

Task order scope spans technical support, planning and analysis support, business support, integration support, and capability data management. Maritime Expeditionary Warfare support represents the largest recent order, awarded as a total small-business set-aside with a $7.6 million ceiling. Orders range from $3,500 test task orders issued at vehicle launch to multi-year efforts exceeding $7 million.

Competitive concentration is moderate. Innovative Reasoning LLC holds the largest share with $14.8 million combined potential value across two orders, followed by Strategic Ventures Consulting Group, LLC at $6.6 million across four orders and Advanced Management Strategies Group, Inc. at $6.4 million across two orders. These three firms account for roughly 97 percent of combined potential value. Nine distinct primes have received awards, with five firms holding 67 percent of task orders. All 18 orders fund Marine Corps requirements; no other agencies place work on this vehicle. Approximately 78 percent of orders carry no set-aside designation; 22 percent are total small-business awards.

Task orders typically carry firm fixed pricing and durations ranging from under one year to five-plus years, with obligated amounts often significantly lower than ceiling values, indicating phased funding or option periods.

The services for this DIQ will include requirements analysis, systems engineering support, data management, doctrine development, and operations analysis to support capabilities analysis, gap identification, solutions development, readiness assessment, and other processes.
