The current International Trade Center Manager (ITCM) contract is scheduled to expire on June 7, 2026. The General Services Administration (GSA) is currently managing the procurement for a new long-term contract; however, this process will not be finalized before the current expiration date.
To ensure continuity of services, GSA is implementing an interim bridge contract. This bridge will provide the necessary time to competitively procure a long-term solution that promotes full and open competition. Specifically, this period will allow for the formulation of a new strategic plan, solicitation, award, and the transition period required for the implementation of the new ITCM contract.
GSA requires a single manager to operate all associated services in a coordinated and harmonious manner. TCMA is the only vendor that has performed the trade center manager services since 1995 and, in doing so, has extensive knowledge and business expertise required to properly manage the unique requirements of the ITC Program.
GSA will consider any bids, proposals, quotations, or capability statements. Any response shall be submitted via e-mail to Ingrid Blair, Contracting Officer via email at [email protected] NO LATER THAN Friday, April 10, 2026 at 4:00 PM EST. The agency will consider any such submission.

This requirement supports the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center located at 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, DC. The contract is planned for a six-month base period with one six-month option period to ensure continuity of operations while GSA finalizes a long-term competitive procurement.
