Technical Resources Support Program

The Technical Resources Support Program Master BPA, awarded by the US Agency for International Development on May 7, 2013, is closed to new ordering as of May 27, 2018—no new task orders may be placed against this vehicle. The BPA carried a combined potential value of $757 thousand against a shared ceiling of $5 million, with $722 thousand already obligated (95% of combined potential). This vehicle is not active for pursuit.

The six task orders awarded between July 2013 and September 2015 funded project monitoring and evaluation activities for USAID development programs, concentrated heavily in the Philippines. Work included mid-term and final performance evaluations of USAID-supported initiatives (the B+WISER and ECOFISH activities, the LIPAD literacy project, and the AMORE 3 project), as well as legacy documentation capturing USAID's 53-year operational history in the Philippines. All orders were firm-fixed-price, with individual ceilings ranging from approximately $51 thousand to $150 thousand and ultimate completion dates falling between March 2014 and June 2017.

Three distinct primes shared the award portfolio. Foreign awardees (undisclosed) held three orders valued at $346 thousand combined potential; Pacific Rim Innovation and Management Exponents, Inc. held two orders at $280 thousand combined potential; and CPRM Consultants Inc. held one order at $131 thousand. Customer activity concentrated at USAID Philippines, which funded four orders ($481 thousand combined potential), with the parent USAID agency funding the remaining two orders ($277 thousand combined potential).

The vehicle operated under no set-aside restrictions. The modest ordering cadence (six orders over two years of active contracting) and the front-loaded activity early in the BPA's lifecycle (no task orders awarded after September 2015, despite the vehicle remaining open for five additional years) signal limited market pull and no basis for forecasting future ordering momentum.
