FSI/SAIT IT Training Services

The FSI/SAIT IT Training Services Master IDIQ is a contract vehicle awarded by the Department of State's Foreign Service Institute (FSI) to provide comprehensive information technology training and professional services. The contract supports the School of Applied Information Technology (SAIT) at the National Foreign Affairs Training Center in Arlington, Virginia, delivering targeted IT training and support for Department of State personnel and the Foreign Service community. Through this vehicle, contractors provide instructors, program analysts, and general support personnel to execute IT training programs and end-user projects across various domestic and international locations.

The task orders under this IDIQ consistently demonstrate a focus on IT professional services and training, with typical contract values ranging from approximately $500,000 to $1.4 million and annual performance periods. Two primary contractors have been prominent in winning task orders: The Prospective Group, Inc. (TPG), a woman-owned small business, and Argin Technologies LLC, also a woman-owned small business. Most delivery orders are priced using labor hours and have not utilized specific small business set-aside designations, though both prime contractors are certified as women-owned businesses. The performance locations have been diverse, including Arlington, VA, as well as international sites such as U.S. Embassies in Manila, Abu Dhabi, Johannesburg, Beijing, and other global locations. Travel-related task orders have also been common, supporting on-site training delivery across these international venues.
