US Public Sector & Government Contracting Paths

Path A: Direct Commercial & Micro-Purchase Orders

For engagements within FAR simplified acquisition / micro-purchase thresholds ($10k-$50k), federal, municipal, and university departments can engage directly via standard Purchase Orders or corporate procurement cards without multi-month open tender cycles.

Path B: Specialized Technical Delivery Partner to Prime

Where domestic prime contractor mandates apply (e.g., 8(a), SDVOSB, or HubZone), TheEduAssist operates as the specialized instructional design and SCORM engineering delivery partner to the domestic prime contractor, providing scalable technical capacity and high cost-efficiency under your prime vehicle.
