About this award

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) within the Department of the Treasury awarded a $1.34 million definitive contract to Cision US Inc. on April 1, 2023, for daily news briefings, media clipping services, analytics, and scoring support. The contract, which runs through March 31, 2028, utilizes a time and materials pricing structure with no set-aside designation and was competitively awarded on an unrestricted basis. Services will be performed at Cision's facility in Calverton, Maryland, and will support approximately 4,000 OCC employee subscriptions. The solicitation required delivery of a daily news digest briefing summarizing up to 85 news articles across 20 sections, an early morning news briefing, and a media analytics dashboard for up to five users, with a base year running from March 1, 2023, through February 29, 2024, followed by four optional one-year extensions.

Cision US Inc., a foreign-owned, Chicago-headquartered provider of public relations software and earned media services, serves as the prime contractor for this requirement. The company maintains an extensive portfolio of federal contracts across civilian agencies, including the Executive Office of the President, Environmental Protection Agency, and Food and Drug Administration, specializing in media monitoring, analytics, press release distribution, and communications management solutions. Cision also holds a government-wide Multiple Award Schedule contract valued at $5.0 million through the General Services Administration's Federal Acquisition Service, which establishes broader access to its media intelligence platform solutions across federal agencies. This OCC contract reflects the agency's need for comprehensive media intelligence capabilities to support situational awareness and strategic communications objectives for Treasury's independent bureau.
