## Description

The mission of the U.S. Department of State (DOS) is to advance the interests of the American people, their safety and economic prosperity, by leading America’s foreign policy through diplomacy, advocacy, and assistance. The United States Government (USG), Department of State (DOS), Bureau of Overseas Buildings Operations’ (OBO) mission is to provide safe, secure, and functional facilities for the conduct of U.S. diplomacy and the promotion of U.S. interests worldwide.

In support of the mission, OBO directs the worldwide overseas buildings program for DoS and the U.S. government community serving abroad under the authority of the Chiefs of Mission. OBO manages and supports the full building life cycle including design, construction, acquisition, maintenance, use, and sale of over 30,000 real properties and the use of sales proceeds.

OBO’s primary role in the building life cycle is that of an “owner” reviewing and managing the quality and completeness of work performed by contracted architects, engineers, construction specialists and maintenance specialists supporting design, design-build, build, rehabilitation, and operation/maintenance projects. OBO is seeking to better understand the capabilities of 8(a) firms for the Rapid Engineering and Construction (REC) portfolio.

The REC portfolio takes advantage of Small Business rules that allow agencies to award contracts to 8(a) vendors without competition to facilitate the rapid delivery of smaller projects. REC projects include project development, design and construction services for projects located worldwide. **Please see the attached document for further details and instructions
