About this opportunity
The Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (OUSD(P)) is soliciting advisory and assistance services to support policy development, planning, and coordination with interagency stakeholders, allied nations, and partner organizations. The DOD Washington Headquarters Service is the procuring agency, and the work will support the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Indo-Pacific Security Affairs (OASD IPSA) across three primary task categories: Program Coordination, Program Analysis, and Engagement and Facilitation Support. Prospective contractors must be SBA-certified 8(a) Program Participants and must hold or be capable of obtaining GSA Schedule listings. The Government will evaluate capability statements based on corporate information, GSA Schedule holdings, detailed staffing plans mapped to the Performance Work Statement, personnel qualifications (with emphasis on ability to recruit and retain employees with Top Secret clearance and SCI eligibility), relevant past performance from the last three years, and feedback on the PWS itself. Responses to this Request for Information are due by February 3, 2026, at 4:00 PM Eastern Time, and must be submitted electronically to Victoria.L.Brayman.civ@mail.mil and Pamela.W.Odhiambo.civ@mail.mil.
This opportunity is set aside as a Competitive 8(a) contract and applies NAICS code 561110 (Office Administrative Services). The Government contemplates issuing a future Firm-Fixed-Price task order against the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, though this Request for Information is market research only and will not result in contract award or payment. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in the pre-solicitation notice. Capability statements must not exceed five pages and should include detailed staffing plans with labor category hours, evidence of other SBA socio-economic qualifications, three relevant projects completed within the past three years, and personnel recruitment and retention capabilities. The Government will not acknowledge receipt of responses, provide feedback, or make any payments for submitted information, and all information provided is voluntary and may be used solely to refine the Government's acquisition strategy.
