Notice Regarding Dept. of the Interior, IBC, AQD to close contracts.

The Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center (IBC), Acquisition Services Directorate (AQD) issued a Special Notice on February 9, 2026, announcing the planned closeout of multiple expired contracts. The notice applies to 24 contracts identified in the attached contract list, which represent a diverse portfolio spanning consulting, aviation, and professional services sectors awarded between 2020 and 2026. The contracts subject to closeout have completed their periods of performance, are fully invoiced, and carry zero remaining balances. This special notice serves as advance notification to affected vendors regarding the upcoming administrative closure action. The Department of the Interior is the civilian federal agency responsible for issuing this announcement through its Interior Business Center.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform contractors of the Department of the Interior's intent to proceed with unilateral contract closeouts in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 4.804, with the closeout process beginning ten business days after the announcement posting date. Contractors identified in the attached contract list may request a bilateral closeout modification or present valid reasons to prevent closeout by submitting such requests to the designated point of contact prior to the February 23, 2026 closing date. There are no specific eligibility criteria or participation requirements, as this notice applies only to the named contract holders whose agreements are being administratively closed. The Special Notice represents a routine administrative action rather than a new business opportunity or program initiative, affecting contractors whose contracts have reached natural completion with all financial obligations satisfied.
