Shared Ceiling $25B

The Veteran Enterprises Contracting for Transformation and Operational Readiness (VECTOR) is a $25 billion multiple-award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Strategic Acquisition Center. The contract supports a broad range of professional services including program and project management, strategic planning, performance measurement, data analysis, training, outreach, supply chain management, and human resources support. Originally solicited as a 100% Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) set-aside, the vehicle enables rapid procurement of consulting and technical services to support VA's operational and transformation initiatives.

Task orders under VECTOR typically range from $100,000 to $10 million, with performance periods spanning 1-5 years, predominantly supporting VA offices such as the Veterans Health Administration, Office of Enterprise Integration, and National Center for PTSD. Frequently awarded contractors include Aptive Resources, RB Consulting, Dynamic Integrated Services, Tenacity Solutions, and Client First Technologies, with performance locations predominantly in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. While many task orders maintain the SDVOSB set-aside designation, a significant number of awards are competed on a full and open basis. Common task order scopes include strategic communications, logistics support, data analytics, training development, executive coaching, and technical consulting services. The contract vehicle demonstrates a strategic approach by the VA to leverage veteran-owned businesses while obtaining flexible, mission-critical professional services.
