Purchase Order AG32SBP150137

The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) awarded a purchase order to Aerotek Affiliated Services, Inc. (doing business as Aerotek Staffing) on April 20, 2015, for temporary data entry services. The contract called for two data entry workers to support the Northeastern Regional Field Office during a focused operational period from May 26 through June 13, 2015. The contract was awarded on a firm fixed-price basis with a ceiling value of $2,756.59 and an ultimate completion date of September 15, 2016. The work was performed in Hanover, Maryland, and no small business set-aside designation was applied to this award.

Aerotek Affiliated Services, Inc. is a staffing and recruitment agency specializing in temporary workforce solutions across various industries and skill levels. The company was selected to provide these temporary administrative support services, which represent a typical engagement within NASS's operational needs during peak data collection and processing periods. While this particular award was modest in value, it reflects NASS's reliance on flexible staffing arrangements to manage seasonal or project-specific workload demands in support of the agency's agricultural statistics gathering and reporting mission.
