Jefferson Consulting Group has been awarded a five-year, $200 million dollar Acquisition and Program Support Services (APSS) Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). 

Since launching in 1996, Jefferson has supported program offices and contracting offices to improve acquisition outcomes. Our acquisition and program management experts help bridge the gap between program management and acquisition to ensure better requirements, more effective acquisition strategies, and improved outcomes for our agency clients. Jefferson is well suited to support HUD as it seeks to obtain pre- and post-award acquisition and program management support to enable its important mission. 

HUD’s mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all. HUD is working to strengthen the housing market to bolster the economy and protect consumers; meet the need for quality affordable rental homes; utilize housing as a platform for improving quality of life; build inclusive and sustainable communities free from discrimination; and transform the way HUD does business. Jefferson is working to support these objectives through improved acquisition and program management.  

“Jefferson is excited to bring its decades of experience in federal acquisition and program management support services to HUD. As the agency strives to meet increasing agency requirement demands, Jefferson is ready to assist throughout the acquisition and program management lifecycles,” said Jefferson CEO Janet Clement. 

About Jefferson: Jefferson is an award-winning, minority- and woman-owned small business and a proven leader in acquisition, program management and strategic services, and human capital. Jefferson has more than 25 years of experience supporting more than 60 federal agency clients, helping them to address challenges and improve performance in the U.S. and overseas. 

Jefferson Consulting Group, a woman-owned small business, has been awarded a five-year, 41 million dollar Institutional Support Contract (ISC) in support of the U.S. Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Development, Democracy, and Innovation (DDI) Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Hub (GenDev).   

The GenDev ISC contract is led by Jefferson Solutions and its partners, Social Impact and WI-HER. The team brings decades of experience in support of gender equality and women’s empowerment (GEWE) and leadership in institutional support and capacity building with USAID. The team will leverage a vast network of gender and women’s empowerment experts across USAID technical sectors to provide innovative and effective services for GenDev and Operating Units (OUs) in Missions and Washington.  

Cultivating, promoting, and protecting women’s and girls’ rights is a strategic imperative in helping to foster political stability and democracy. The GenDev ISC plays a crucial role in uplifting the economic rights of women, advocating for equal access to education for women and girls, and combating gender-based violence (GBV). Since women’s economic success has a ripple effect, these initiatives lead to healthier, more prosperous, and resilient communities at large. 

“We believe passionately in USAID’s vision of a world in which women and girls, and gender diverse individuals are afforded equal liberties to their counterparts and are empowered to secure better lives for themselves, their families, and their communities. As a woman-owned small business, we know firsthand of the obstacles to success. In countries where there are even greater challenges, it is crucial that we dedicate resources to overcoming restrictive gender norms and inequalities. Jefferson is proud to support USAID in creating an enduring impact through their programs to achieve this vision,” said Jefferson CEO Janet Clement.

Jefferson Consulting Group has been awarded a five-year 64 million dollar Institutional Support Contract (ISC) by the U.S. Agency for International Development Bureau for Africa (USAID/AFR). The Research and Institutional Support Services Activity (RISSA) will support the core mandate and activities of USAID/AFR to advance and implement its strategic priorities in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).

The RISSA contract is led by Jefferson and its partners, International Business & Technical Consultants (IBTCI), Stratitia, and 2c4 Technologies. With more than 30 years of experience providing institutional services and implementing more than 50 USAID ISCs with superior results, the team is well equipped to support USAID/AFR in its mission.

USAID/AFR works in partnership with African leaders and decision-makers to design, implement, and support development projects that address serious challenges in SSA. Tailoring programs to each country, USAID/AFR works to prevent conflict and violent extremism, support more accountable and democratic institutions, increase opportunities for economic advancement, provide access to and enable the delivery of health services, and more.  The Jefferson team will support these objectives by enabling effective, rapid-response high-quality support to USAID/AFR, USAID Missions and partners in SSA, including U.S. Presidential initiatives such as Power Africa, YALI, and Prosper Africa.

“The work of USAID/AFR and its partners is critically important to fostering global security, prosperity, health, freedom, and democracy. We passionately believe that international development programs are a necessity to better the lives of so many. We are honored to be chosen by the world’s premier international development agency to support their mission,” said Jefferson CEO Janet Clement.

Jefferson Consulting Group announces the recent award by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) of a five-year, $22.2 million Institutional Support Services contract to provide technical, programmatic, and administrative services to the Agency’s Bureau for Legislative and Public Affairs (USAID/LPA). USAID/LPA is the Agency’s primary liaison between USAID and the American people, and at the same time facilitates USAID communication and outreach activities across more than 100 countries worldwide.

Jefferson, with our partners XL Associates (XLA) and Federal Business Council (FBC), will support USAID/LPA in producing outreach products for USAID digital platforms, creating content for Agency social media communications, crafting speeches for USAID senior leadership outreach to internal and external audiences, and organizing events that engage both the Agency workforce and key actors on issues critical to USAID international development initiatives.

“The ability of USAID to engage audiences at home, and throughout the world, builds trust in the assistance that our government’s premier international development agency delivers worldwide,” said Jefferson CEO Janet Clement. “USAID programming saves lives, supports emerging democracies, and lifts up vulnerable communities in times of crisis. Jefferson is elated for the opportunity to contribute to this mission by expanding USAID’s ability to put information about the Agency in the hands of those who benefit from, and those who implement, critical development activities across the globe.”
