IDIQ stands for indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity, which means that in a specified period and contract amount, a contractor or groups of contractors will be available to deliver goods and services.
Existing IDIQ contracts should be considered prior to establishing a new agency specific single or multiple award IDIQ vehicle. However, establishing an agency unique IDIQ contract may be an appropriate business decision to support a portfolio of programs when recurring needs are anticipated. They are used when GSA can’t determine, above a specified minimum, the precise quantities of supplies or services that the government will require during the contract period. IDIQs help streamline the contract process and speed service delivery. IDIQ stands for “indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity.” While the full name does give some hints in regards to the context and purpose of the contract, the nuance is a bit deeper. IDIQ contracts are set for a fixed period of time, during that period of time the contractor is responsible for an unlimited number of separate projects, or additional work on a current project. The IDIQ contract is dead. For example, let’s say an IDIQ was awarded for a base year + 4 option years, $1 million/per year for a total of $5 million. If the ordering agency incorrectly calculated IDIQ value due to poor historical data, and has used up its first $1 million in 3 months, Single Award IDIQs are often more favored, since these contracts are awarded to a single party. Multiple Award IDIQs on the other hand, are awarded to a group of companies or contractors who must then compete for each project, with those who provide the best proposals winning. What is an IDIQ? IDIQ contracts must contain a minimum and maximum level of quantities to be ordered under the contract, either in terms of dollars or numbers of units. The FAR requires contracting officers to give preference to making multiple awards when implementing IDIQ contracts (see FAR 16.504( c)).

Further, BOA holders can be added and removed without upsetting the integrity of a source selection result as one would find with trying to add new IDIQ holders or the termination liability of removing IDIQ holders previously mentioned. The most common use of the IDIQ type contract is a public bid for a long-term contract (usually five years) with multiple awards to meet specific product or service requirements order when the requirement becomes known. Competitions are held among the awardees (companies) for a specific order. IDIQ's can be for single or multiple agency use. An IDIQ is a contract type and not an order type. There are only two types of orders that may be placed off IDIQ contracts: delivery orders and task orders. Ordering procedures for IDIQ contracts are governed by FAR 16.505, whereas the ordering procedures for FSS are governed by FAR 8.405. The IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity) methods are used when the government cannot estimate with certainty its needs. This allows for an estimate with minimum and a maximum quantity. The government guarantees the contractor a minimum amount of the product or service will be procured.
