Peace Corps Travel Management Consolidation

The Interior Business Center, operating under the Department of the Interior on behalf of the Peace Corps, has issued a Special Notice regarding the consolidation of travel management services under solicitation number 140D0426Q0014. This consolidation merges two existing GSA Schedule task orders into a single integrated requirement to provide comprehensive travel support for Peace Corps operations. The special notice was posted on January 30, 2026, with a due date of February 6, 2026. The Peace Corps manages over 7,000 volunteers stationed at 61 international posts and requires a full spectrum of travel management capabilities. The consolidation applies to the NAICS category of Travel Agencies (561510) and the PSC category V302 (Transportation/Travel/Relocation).

The objective of this consolidation is to streamline Peace Corps travel management operations by combining services currently split between two vendors into a single integrated provider, thereby improving efficiency, reducing coordination delays, and enhancing accountability. The consolidated requirement encompasses airline reservations, passport and visa services, ground transportation, lodging reservations, meeting and event planning, account management, and invoicing services. The primary place of performance is Peace Corps' Washington, DC office at 1275 First Street NE, with minimum staffing requirements of two travel agents and three passport and visa agents during core business hours (8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. ET, Monday-Friday). The consolidation consolidates two existing Firm Fixed Price task orders—one valued at approximately $3.1 million held by Omega World Travel and another valued at approximately $1.2 million held by CW Government Travel, both expiring March 24, 2026. The government has determined that consolidation is justified based on market research indicating small businesses lack the global reach and integrated service capability necessary for Peace Corps' complex, high-volume international travel needs, though all contractors meeting capability requirements may be eligible to compete.
