About this award
The U.S. Agency for Global Media's Voice of America issued a new call order to Hakobyan Sona for services supporting the Armenian Service, with an award date of June 1, 2024, and a ceiling value of $5,750. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price call order issued against a blanket purchase agreement originally established in June 2020 and running through May 2025. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, meaning it was open to competition among all eligible contractors. The place of performance is Oradell, New Jersey. Hakobyan Sona, a for-profit sole proprietorship specializing in Armenian-language media and journalism services, has maintained a consistent relationship with VOA as a primary client, delivering Armenian stringer services including on-the-ground reporting, content generation, and journalistic support for VOA's Armenian Service news programming.
On May 22, 2025, USAGM executed a termination for convenience action and is deobligating associated funds. The agency has indicated that this action does not constitute a full contract closeout, with a complete contract closure to be issued separately. The ultimate completion date for this call order was March 25, 2025. Under the overarching BPA, Hakobyan Sona has received multiple call orders totaling $85,500 over the five-year period, enabling VOA to efficiently procure specialized language, reporting, and media services essential to its mission of distributing independent news about Armenia and the Armenian diaspora globally.
