About this opportunity

The Department of State Office of Acquisition Management has awarded a sole-source order to Nakupuna Federal LLC (UEI PTH7Z5BD9GK5; CAGE 9HEC4) under GSA Multiple Award Schedule contract 47QTCA26D003Q for federal administrative and operational support services, with a base period value of $7.487 million and total potential value of $22.866 million over 18 months.

The justification invokes unusual urgency under GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(1)(i), citing unforeseen workforce reductions and integration of former USAID functions that created a service interruption risk when existing contractor coverage ends on September 16, 2026. Market research conducted August 1–6, 2026, reviewed over 100 existing contracts and external Schedule contractors and determined that Nakupuna Federal LLC was the only viable source able to meet the complete requirement and meet the September deadline.

The order provides 65 contractor positions across ten task areas supporting the Bureau of Global Acquisitions' acquisition and federal assistance operations, including acquisition lifecycle and procurement advisory support, federal assistance lifecycle and grant audit support, policy and training, cost and accounting support, and program management. Some contractor personnel will require Secret or Top Secret clearances. The base period runs from September 16, 2026, through March 15, 2027, with two potential 6-month option periods extending through March 15, 2028. Performance occurs primarily at Department facilities in Arlington, Virginia, and Charleston, South Carolina, with Government-approved remote work permitted. The requirement is classified under NAICS 541611 and PSC R707. The Department plans to compete a replacement firm-fixed-price small-business set-aside among eligible GSA Schedule contractors, targeting award by December 2026 or January 2027, with transition completion by March 15, 2027.

Notice text

The order will acquire the professional services described in Section 3. This is a new procurement. The program seeks approval solely under the unusual urgency exception. Sections 4, 6, and 7 address the urgent circumstances, the market research supporting the proposed source, and the steps for restoring competition.

Awarded contract 19AQMM26F1347 to unknown vendor for unknown amount on 2026-09-15.
