About this opportunity
The Department of Defense Education Activity intends to award a sole-source Firm Fixed Price purchase order to the State Educational Technology Directors Association (SETDA) for K-12 national organization membership, with a response deadline of May 15, 2026 at 12:00 PM ET.
This is a non-competitive procurement justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) on the basis that SETDA is the only organization providing membership-based services focused exclusively on state-level education technology leadership and national K-12 digital learning policy. Market research evaluated alternatives including the Consortium for School Networking, the International Society for Technology in Education, Digital Promise, Future Ready Schools, and others, all rejected because they target district, school, or commercial levels rather than state-level technology leadership. SETDA's proprietary research, member-only policy guidance, collaborative working groups, and nationwide education technology leadership network are unavailable from commercial sources.
The contract period extends five years from September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2031, consisting of one base year and four one-year option periods. The base year is funded at $9,500 from FY26 Operating and Maintenance funds, with an estimated total contract value of $47,500. The NAICS code is 813920 (Professional Organizations) with a small business size standard of $23,500,000.
SETDA will provide annual membership for up to ten DoDEA staff members, two complimentary registrations to the annual SETDA Leadership Summit, and industry-standard technical support via telephone or email within one business day of initial contact. Responses must include unit price, list price, delivery period, prompt payment discount terms, F.O.B. point, Unique Entity Identifier, Taxpayer Identification Number, and business size certification. Submit to London.thomas@dodea.edu and alim.koroma@dodea.edu, referencing solicitation number HE125426QE038. All offerors must maintain active SAM registration. The Government retains discretion to proceed non-competitively or conduct competitive procurement based on responses.
