About this opportunity

The Library of Congress, through its Contracts and Grants Directorate, issued this sole-source justification notice on December 17, 2025, for the extension of a firm fixed price contract with Prime Buchholz LLC to provide trust fund custodial and investment advisory services. The contract extension, designated as LCCFO23C0001, covers a two-year period from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2027, with a base period of one year (January 1–December 31, 2026) and an option period of one year (January 1–December 31, 2027). The services include continuous analysis of the Library's trust fund investment portfolio, periodic investment policy reviews, investment consultation and recommendations, manager implementation services, and quarterly and annual performance reporting to support the Trust Fund Board's management of donations, bequests, and investment strategies. The Library of Congress invoked a statutory exception to full and open competition under 2 U.S.C. § 154-159, which permits the Trust Fund Board to procure services without adhering to standard federal acquisition regulations; the Trust Fund Board's Resolution 2025-04 and a vote at the December 10, 2025 annual meeting specifically directed the award to Prime Buchholz under the same terms as the prior contract. The specific award amount and quantity of goods were not disclosed in the public notice; however, the contract is categorized under NAICS 523991 (Trust, Fiduciary, and Custody Activities) and PSC R710 (Support–Management: Financial).
