About this vehicle
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) established this Master BPA on January 7, 2022, with ordering authority extending through January 6, 2032, providing five years and five months of remaining ordering runway. The vehicle carries a combined potential value of $34.8 million across four task orders, with $30.5 million already obligated (88% of potential value), and funds data support services on a time-and-materials basis.
Ordering momentum has flattened since the vehicle's launch. Two task orders were awarded in 2022 (May and August) and two in 2023 (April and September); no task orders have been placed in the past two years and nine months. The four awarded calls support data support service activities across FERC operations, with ceiling values ranging from approximately $4.5 million to $10.5 million and ultimate completion dates clustered between mid-2027 and late-2028.
Competition is highly concentrated: Excella, LLC holds three of four task orders and commands $24.3 million of combined potential value (70% of the vehicle total), while Deloitte & Touche LLP holds the single remaining order valued at $10.5 million (30%). All four task orders fund FERC, so customer concentration presents no secondary diversity signal; this is a single-agency vehicle. Set-aside designations are not present in the source material.
The vehicle remains technically active but shows declining ordering activity. With 88% of potential value already obligated and no new calls issued since September 2023, near-term pursuit depends on Excella or Deloitte generating follow-on work, or FERC expanding the vehicle's scope. Prospective bidders not on the current awardee roster face the structural challenge of displacing an incumbent that holds commanding market share on a vehicle with limited historical throughput and no visible recent solicitation activity.
