FDA Integrated Services BPA

The Food and Drug Administration established the FDA Integrated Services Master BPA on February 27, 2019, with a shared ceiling of $100 million; ordering closed on August 27, 2024, and is no longer accepting new calls.

The vehicle is functionally inactive. The most recent task order was awarded August 15, 2024, and ordering momentum has declined sharply. The BPA issued 72 task orders across its lifecycle, averaging 14.4 orders per year in 2020–2021, then dropping to 12 orders in 2021, 9 in 2022, 12 in 2023, and only 6 in 2024 before the ordering period closed. Combined task-order potential value reached $111.2 million against the $100 million ceiling, with $79.8 million obligated (72% of combined potential). Several recent task orders carry termination-for-convenience notices citing executive directives on wasteful spending and cost efficiency, signaling reduced FDA appetite for ongoing engagements.

Work across the vehicle centers on human capital services: executive coaching, leadership development training, organizational development, change management, employee engagement support, and staff college training administration. Orders span firm-fixed-price, labor-hour, and time-and-materials pricing.

Competition is highly concentrated. Suntiva LLC holds 55 of 72 awards (76% of task orders) and $102.8 million of the $111.2 million combined potential value (92.5%). Management Concepts, Inc., the sole other prime, holds 17 orders and $8.4 million potential value. No other vendors appear in the portfolio. All 72 orders are unrestricted, with no set-aside activity.

Customer concentration is absolute: all 72 orders fund the Food and Drug Administration. Within FDA, ordering spans multiple centers and offices—Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN), Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA), Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM), and others—but the vehicle serves only one agency.

Task-order values range from under $15,000 to approximately $20 million. Notable large orders include an unrestricted labor-hour award to Suntiva for equal employment opportunity strategic support services ($20.1 million ceiling, $19.3 million obligated), a firm-fixed-price order for general training delivery and human capital administration ($9.3 million ceiling, $1.7 million obligated), and a firm-fixed-price order for project and program management support ($2.8 million ceiling, $843,687 obligated). Task durations typically range from six months to two years, with some longer-duration efforts extending three years or more.
