Management Worlds, Inc.

Management Worlds, Inc. (Management Worlds / Palatine Group Division), a for-profit management consulting and training firm based in Barrytown, New York, operates as a prime contractor under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and other federal vehicles, delivering professional development training, management consulting, and survey services to federal agencies on a full-and-open basis without set-aside designations.

The vendor operates across two primary capability domains grounded in recent awards. Management consulting and organizational training dominate the portfolio — 52 of 85 awards (NAICS 541611, Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services) and 21 awards (Professional and Management Development Training) — with the largest recent client being the Department of Transportation's Immediate Office of the Secretary, which placed four delivery orders for project management principles, concepts, strategies, and leadership training at the DOT Volpe Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, between July 2023 and July 2026, ranging from $15,209 to $21,937 per order. The vendor also delivers survey and assessment services, capturing 24 awards under PSC codes for "Support–Professional" and related categories. A smaller print and publishing capability (3 awards under NAICS 323110, Books Printing) rounds out the portfolio.

Customer concentration skews toward NASA and the Department of Transportation, though with a notable divergence between award count and dollar value. By award count, NASA commands 37 of the top customers' 44 awards (52% coverage), with 17 awards at NASA headquarters and regional centers totaling $13.6 million combined potential value. By potential value, NASA headquarters contributes only $12.8 million of the vendor's $45.7 million total, while the GSA Federal Acquisition Service dominates at $24.9 million on just 2 awards — reflecting GSA's role in issuing the vendor's core Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) vehicle. The Department of Transportation contributes 7 awards worth $140 thousand combined potential value. The vendor serves 12 distinct federal agencies across the portfolio.

Management Worlds holds 48 task orders under the Professional Services Schedule (PSC) for a combined potential value of $15.4 million, 6 task orders under the core Multiple Award Schedule for $122 thousand, and subordinate volume under an Army Indefinite Delivery Contract (W92752), GSA BPAs, and Federal Supply Schedules. Recent activity is sparse and flat — one award per year in 2021, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026 — with only $10.8 million of the combined potential value obligated to date (24% realization rate), suggesting a large tail of option periods and pricing-only reservations. No awards show completion dates within the next twenty-four months in the source data, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure.

The GSA labor portfolio spans 20 active categories at hourly rates from $107.32 (Production Illustrator with bachelor's degree and five years' experience) to $314.64 (Senior Partner Consultant with master's degree and fifteen years' experience), with mid-market roles such as Senior Survey Analyst ($166.05/hr) and Senior Facilitator ($288.43/hr). No security-cleared positions are offered. The vendor operates as a prime contractor only; the source reports zero subcontract awards across the 85-award portfolio.
