The contractor must be an ordained Catholic priest personally endorsed by the Archdiocese for the Military Services (AMS); the AMS does not endorse priests subcontracted through third parties and will only recognize direct contractor relationships with the military installation.
Performance occurs at Memorial Chapel, Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall.

The priest must serve as the subject matter matter expert on Catholic religious instruction in compliance with the AMS conformity listing and provide weekly ministry of at least twenty hours. The contractor must achieve 98 percent acceptable quality levels for service delivery and 100 percent compliance for documentation and endorsement.
The base period runs ten months (September 1, 2026 through June 28, 2027) with four optional twelve-month extensions and a six-month extension option, extending through December 28, 2031. The contract is firm fixed price, non-personal services. The NAICS code is 813110 (Religious Organizations) with a thirteen-million-dollar size standard. Security training includes AT Level I, iWatch, and OPSEC; background checks follow Army Directive 2014-23.
