About this award

This Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) call, awarded September 1, 2024, with completion targeted for August 31, 2025, is part of a recurring monthly requirement to obtain journalist stringers who produce and report breaking news stories, features, longform documentaries, and radio programming domestically and globally. The contract carries firm fixed pricing with no set-aside designation, indicating competitive award to this small disadvantaged business based on capability and value.
Storyhunter provides VOA with access to a global network of freelance journalists, videographers, editors, and media professionals who support the agency's international broadcasting mission across multiple language divisions and geographic regions, including Persian, Eurasia, South and Central Asian, and Latin American services. This task order draws from the company's larger IDIQ BPA with USAGM, established in September 2022 with a $250,000 ceiling and performance period extending through August 2027, which enables rapid procurement of flexible media production services to support VOA's mission of promoting freedom of expression and fact-based reporting worldwide.
