The solicitation is not set aside for any specific group and does not indicate an incumbent contractor. The position is located in Washington, DC, with a salary range of $120,579 - $156,755, equivalent to a GS-13 level including locality pay. The contract period is for five years, and the role will be within the Office of Global Policy, Partnerships, Programs, and Communication (G3PC).
