Quick Summary

The WASHINGTON HEADQUARTERS SERVICES (WHS), on behalf of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), has issued a Sole Source Justification for Assessment, Monitoring, and Evaluation (AM&E) Database Management Support Services. This justification seeks approval to award a bridge contract to LMI Consulting, Inc., the incumbent, to ensure continuity of critical services. The bridge contract is anticipated to run from March 30, 2026, to November 29, 2026, bridging the gap until a competitive acquisition under the upcoming TASER IDIQ contract is awarded in Q1 FY27.

Scope of Work

The required services include:

  • Maintaining data systems and configurations for the AM&E database.
  • Developing and maintaining the public-facing AM&E website.
  • Overseeing the development of the annual Foreign Military Training Report (FMTR), including data calls, input coordination, report drafting, and submission.

Additional Notes

A notice of intent to award this sole source bridge contract was previously published on SAM.gov on January 29, 2026. One response was received from Plusonet LLC. However, the government determined that a sole source award to LMI Consulting Inc. represents the best value due to the critical need to prevent a lapse in essential services. The original acquisition for these services was conducted competitively.
