The GSA 8(a) STARS III contract has a total value of $50 billion<\/em><\/h5>

(Odon, IN – February 11, 2022)<\/p>

True North Joint Venture, LLC<\/a><\/span>, an SBA 8(a) Certified Joint Venture with its managing partner being geoConvergence<\/a><\/span>, has been awarded a coveted spot on the GSA 8(a) STARS III<\/a><\/span> contract vehicle. 8(a) STARS III is a $50 billion, Best-in-Class contract vehicle that is designed to give 8(a) companies a chance to compete for governmentwide contracts. GSA reports 8(a) STARS III will give the government access to advanced technologies including artificial intelligence, robotic process automation, blockchain and other emerging technologies. True North Joint Venture, LLC is an All Small Mentor-Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 joint venture formed between geoConvergence and Evanhoe & Associates<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>

\u201cThis award gives our joint venture a tremendous opportunity to compete for and win work in a way we haven\u2019t before,\u201d said Prem Radhakrishnan, co-founder & CEO of geoConvergence. \u201cWe will be able to serve as a prime contractor and sole source opportunities while bringing on qualified subcontractors.\u201d Evanhoe is equally excited and, according to Evanhoe Program Director, Kenny Wilson, \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to pursuing new work with geoConvergence on this very active governmentwide IT acquisition contract.\u201d<\/p>

Currently, True North Joint Venture is one of 982 companies nationwide<\/a><\/span> (seven of which are in Indiana) awarded a spot on the 8(a) STARS III contract vehicle.<\/p>

In receiving this award, geoConvergence was assisted by both the Indiana District Office of the Small Business Administration (SBA) and the Indiana Procurement Technical Assistance Center<\/a><\/span> (PTAC), a division of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC).<\/p>

\u201cSBA and PTAC assisted us in navigating the complex federal contracts system and truly helped make this happen,\u201d said Radhakrishnan.<\/p>

\u201cThis is a classic case of a state and federal entities helping private industry in its effort to scale,\u201d said Mike Dodd, Dioltas<\/a><\/span> Advisory Board Chairman, a strategic advisor to geoConvergence. \u201cIn this case, geoConvergence now has the opportunity to win multi-million-dollar contracts and have a true fiscal impact on the State of Indiana by hiring more employees and adding to the state\u2019s tax base.\u201d<\/p>
