estimated ceiling value of $7 million from the United States Department of

projects. Under the terms of the contract, DRC is tasked with providing
acquisition support to aid the distribution of funds to Forest Service
infrastructure projects.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and achieve mission objectives while
setting a new standard for governance and good stewardship of federal spending."

DRC will provide pre-award and post-award acquisition support to Forest Service
regions for emerging task orders including aid during the strategy and planning,
solicitation and development and award and execution stages. DRC will drive the
acquisition support lifecycle by assessing acquisition needs, developing plans
of action and ensuring Forest Service is meeting requirements and tracking
progress. This support will help USDA meet the challenges facing the Service by
improving acquisition management operations and processes.
