This contract is for Personal Services in exclusive support of the USACE Gulf Area Office (GAO) and Iraq Resident Office (IRO) construction and FMS mission.

These staff members are working directly with federal employees in a fluid post-wartime environment. Federal employees must be able to oversee and direct the employees. The types of services provided under the proposed vehicle can only be provided as personal services because the functions provided are so intertwined with government functions as to not be severable.
