About this opportunity
The Department of State Office of Acquisition Management intends to award a sole-source order to Accenture Federal Services for strategic sourcing advisory services on a Firm-Fixed-Price basis, with an estimated total value of $475,000 and an award date of September 30, 2026.
The justification cites GSAR 538.7104-3(ii), resting on AFS's unique capability to perform immediately due to their current maintenance of the Department's internal procurement and financial systems, which provides direct visibility into transactional data, spending patterns, and existing contract vehicles. A compressed operational timeline—with several existing contracts scheduled for re-competition before calendar year-end—makes AFS's combination of specialized system access and procurement pattern familiarity critical to the Department's ability to apply strategic sourcing recommendations in time to inform upcoming recompetes. The contractor will assist contracting officers in identifying potential cost savings across five domestic spend categories procured on a repetitive basis: office furniture, Information Technology/Mobility, logistics (non-Diplomatic Pouch), logistics (Diplomatic Pouch), and personal effects shipping. Specific objectives include optimizing furniture volume and inventory reuse, consolidating IT data plans, reducing expedited shipping costs, and renegotiating carrier rates by weight. This is characterized as a pilot program to test the viability of centralized strategic sourcing for potential global expansion. The contracting officer will award only if the resultant price is determined reasonable under FAR 8.405 procedures.
