Services for Enabling Agile Delivery (SEAD)

The Services for Enabling Agile Delivery (SEAD) Master Blanket Purchase Agreement is a Department of Homeland Security contract vehicle focused on providing advanced agile coaching and technical support services across multiple federal agencies. The vehicle enables agencies to rapidly acquire expertise in agile methodologies, software development, and IT modernization initiatives. Specifically, the contract supports transformation efforts in areas such as systems infrastructure, application development, DevOps, and technology implementation, with a primary emphasis on helping government organizations transition to more efficient, scalable technological approaches.

Task orders under the SEAD BPA consistently target agile transformation, technical oversight, and coaching services, with contract values ranging from approximately $679,000 to $17.7 million and typical performance periods between 12 to 24 months. Prime contractors frequently include small businesses like Alethix LLC, Genesis Consulting Partners, and Halvik Corporation, with most task orders awarded by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). While most task orders use firm fixed price mechanisms, some utilize time and materials pricing. Set-aside designations vary, with some contracts designated for small businesses and others open to all contractors. Performance locations are predominantly in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, including Virginia jurisdictions such as Herndon and Vienna.
