About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture awarded a $814,848.72 delivery order contract to Ebsco Industries Inc. (operating as Ebsco Information Services) on October 1, 2022, for subscription services providing print and/or electronic journal publications accessible via IP authentication to all USDA users through October 1, 2027. This is a follow-on delivery order to the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule contract (GS02F1402H). The contract operates under a firm fixed-price model with no set-aside designation, and the work will be performed in Calverton, Maryland. The delivery order provides USDA with curated access to a specified list of journal titles, enabling federal employees across the agency to conduct research and access scholarly content necessary for the Department's regulatory, scientific, and policy development functions.

This award leverages Ebsco Industries' established role as a leading federal provider of digital research content and library subscription services. The contractor maintains extensive indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity and blanket purchase agreement vehicles across civilian and defense agencies, including a $49 million Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center contract and a $19.5 million Food and Drug Administration agreement, demonstrating significant procurement scale and agency confidence. The USDA delivery order represents a continuation of the agency's subscription-based access model to scholarly journal resources supporting its mission in agriculture, nutrition, food safety, and related scientific domains. Ebsco's multiple subsidiaries, including Yankee Book Peddler operating as Gobi Library Solutions, provide the contractor with comprehensive capabilities to manage complex digital content licensing and delivery across federal networks.
