Technical Support Services for Program Manager Soldier Weapons

The Department of the Army Acquisition Support Center PEO Soldier awarded this Master IDIQ on October 17, 2017, with a final ordering date of October 16, 2022 — the vehicle is no longer accepting new orders and has been inactive for nearly four years. The shared ceiling stands at $24.5 million.

This IDIQ supports program management and technical services for Project Manager Individual Weapons and related soldier weapons programs. Work includes acquisition document development, coordination of Integrated Product Team meetings, research and analysis, test program planning and execution, and Earned Value Management System preparation and maintenance. All 30 awarded task orders are unrestricted (no set-aside designations).

Ordering momentum was front-loaded: 19 orders awarded in the first month following vehicle establishment (October 2017), then 5 in 2018, 5 in 2019, and only 1 in 2022. No orders have been issued since August 2022. The combined potential value of all task orders is $18.9 million, with $14.5 million already obligated (77% of combined potential value), indicating substantial execution against available capacity.

Sabre Global Services LLC leads with 8 orders and $8.2 million in combined potential value—nearly 44% of the vehicle's potential value. Millennium LLC, Filius Corporation, Tristar Inc., and Software Professional Solutions Inc. collectively hold the remaining portfolio across 17 orders. Eight distinct primes competed under the vehicle, with the top five capturing 83% of task orders by count and 94% by value. Roughly 97% of task orders (28 of 30) fund the same customer organization that awarded the vehicle—PEO Soldier itself. Individual task orders typically range from approximately $108 thousand to $2.8 million in ceiling value, with most falling in the $600 thousand to $1.1 million band. Task order durations are typically six months to one year with optional extensions. All work is firm fixed price. Because the ordering period closed in October 2022 and no new task orders have been issued in the past four years, this vehicle is effectively closed to new business.

This IDIQ includes development of required documentation, coordination of actions, attending Integrated Product Team (IPT) meetings as required, providing research, analyses, and reports, tracking staffing status of acquisition documents, preparing original acquisition documents and reviewing and commenting on documents. Additionally, this IDIQ provides support in the planning and execution of test programs pertaining to PM IW programs throughout their life cycle as needed. Additionally, this IDIQ supports the preparation and maintenance of an Earned Value Management System (EVM) for programs that require earned value management.
