Millennium Partners formerly know as Millennium-IP3 Partners until October 2009 was awarded a BRDG IQC prime contract in the full and open competition but then also received the small business set aside under the BRDG IQC. This allows USAID Missions and USAID Washington to access Millennium Partners services on a noncompetitive basis under an exception to fair opportunity under the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR). Millennium Partners can currently work out under BRDG until November 28, 2011.

Millennium has undertaken three task order contracts under BRDG including:
