The Department of State (DoS) ECC Strategic Trade and Border Control Support IDIQ is a federal contract vehicle designed to support the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation's export control and border security initiatives. The master contract enables the procurement of qualified personnel, supplies, equipment, and related services to support foreign governments in enforcing strategic trade and border controls.

Task orders under this IDIQ have consistently been awarded to two primary contractors: Potomac River Group, LLC and Culmen International, LLC, with contract values ranging from approximately $400,000 to $11,260,000.

The task orders frequently involve procuring inspection and detection equipment, training software, IT equipment, and related training services in support of export control and border security programs.
