R3 awarded prime contract with GSA

18 Dec 2011 Coronado, CA.  R3 Strategic Support Group, Inc., a Service–Disabled, Veteran–Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a prime contract by the General Services Administration (GSA) for the Mission Oriented Business Integrated Services (MOBIS) Schedule 874.  The MOBIS program offers a full range of management and consulting services that can improve a federal agency’s performance and their endeavor in meeting mission goals. Through the MOBIS Schedule, GSA can help an organization improve performance and accomplish mission goals through the use of specialized consulting and project management services.  GSA MOBIS is an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quanity (IDIQ) contract allowing R3 to propose vetted, pre-approved prices directly to the government and to allow federal agencies to purchase the services or products of particular schedule holders without an extensive competitive bid process.  The award is a 5-year base with 3 additional 5-year options for a 20 year total period of performance.

From R3’s Neil Marshall:  “We are proud to have negotiated pre-approved, fair government pricing via our MOBIS contract as an option for our current and future customers through a flexible contract mechanism with extremely low fees (0.75%) and ease of ordering.  We anticipate wide usage of this contract in the role as a prime contractor as well as alongside teaming partners in a tailored approach to solving our customers’ most difficult problems.”

An Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Day on Capitol Hill was held on 17 November to stress the importance of preserving the EOD force structure, funding the baseline EOD budget and keeping the faith with EOD Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines and their families. The event was hosted by the Congressional EOD Caucus, co-chaired by Representatives Rick Crawford (R-AR) and Susan Davis (D-CA), and focused on highlighting the contributions of the Army and Air Force as elements of the joint service EOD force.  Another EOD Day on the Hill is planned for March 2012 which will highlight the Navy and Marine Corps.  R3 has been a proud supporter of the EOD Day on the Hill events as well as a key contributor to helping Representative Crawford and Davis organize the EOD Caucus.  The purpose of the EOD Caucus is to inform Congressional members and staff about the critical importance of EOD forces to our national security, protecting our interests and citizens both at home and abroad. These highly trained elite warriors are the key enablers in the ongoing war on Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and the Caucus works to ensure awareness to preserve both the capability and capcity of our nation’s EOD force.
