The vehicle is no longer active for new orders; the last date to order was April 30, 2017, and ordering has been closed for over nine years.

The scope encompasses labor, management, supervision, materials, equipment, and local transportation to support technical and training assistance for mutual self-help housing programs serving eligible nonprofits and tribal entities. Work includes all activities necessary to support the Section 523 grant program as administered under rural development regulations.

This vehicle is not a candidate for pursuit. New orders cannot be placed against it, and no successor vehicle or recompete information is present in the source material. Any remaining contractual obligations under existing task orders have been wound down or are near completion. Contractors seeking to support USDA Rural Housing Service training and technical assistance programs should track any new solicitations or successor vehicles USDA Rural Housing Service may issue.

The Contractor shall furnish all labor, management, supervision, materials, equipment, and local transportation necessary to provide training and technical assistance to public or private nonprofit corporations, agencies, institutions, organizations and other associations, including Indian tribes, eligible to receive assistance under the Section 523 Mutual Self-Help Technical Assistance Grant Program in accordance with 7 CFR Part 1944-I.
