OPNAV N98 Professional Administrative and Management Support 2013-2019

The Department of the Navy Secretary of the Navy awarded this Master IDIQ on May 9, 2013, to provide professional administrative and management support to the Chief of Naval Operations Air Warfare Division (OPNAV N98), but ordering closed on May 7, 2019, and the vehicle is no longer active. The scope encompasses program analysis, financial management, operational research, administrative support services, strategic planning, requirements support, programming and budgeting, manpower assessment, modeling and simulation, and project management.

All 15 task orders awarded under the vehicle carried no set-aside designation and used cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing. Ordering momentum peaked early: six orders in 2013, five in 2016, then two orders each in 2017 and 2018, with the final task order issued September 25, 2018. Combined potential value across all task orders reached $36.5 million, with $31 million obligated (85% of potential value).

KBR Wyle Services, LLC and Whitney Bradley & Brown, Inc. dominated the vehicle, each receiving six orders; KBR Wyle held the larger combined potential value at $19.5 million versus Whitney Bradley & Brown at $16 million. Delta Resources, Inc. and National Technologies Associates, Inc. received two and one orders respectively and collectively held less than $1 million in combined potential value. Task orders ranged from approximately $290 thousand to approximately $4.8 million in ceiling value, with typical durations extending through 2016–2020. The Chief Naval Operations office placed approximately 67% of all orders ($22.7 million combined potential value), with the remainder split between Naval Supply Systems Command and the Secretary of the Navy's office.

Since May 2019, no new orders have been or can be placed against this vehicle. BD professionals pursuing OPNAV N98 professional services work must identify a successor vehicle or alternative contract mechanism.
