About this award

The U.S. Air Force awarded a $203,472 firm fixed-price purchase order to Cultured Status, LLC, a HUBZone-certified women-owned small business based in Atlanta, Georgia, to provide recruiting advertising services at the Ralph Engelstad Arena in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Under this contract, which runs through August 2029, the contractor will produce and display advertising content across four University of North Dakota sports seasons, including men's hockey, women's volleyball, women's basketball, and men's basketball. Deliverables include 30-second video board commercials for hockey games, fascia ring advertisements, center hung advertisements, and rotating scorer's table advertisements for volleyball and basketball events. The contract is designated as a HUBZone small business set-aside, limiting competition to SBA-certified HUBZone firms, and the contractor will coordinate directly with the North Dakota Air National Guard's 119th Wing Recruiting Section and UND's Fighting Hawks Sports Partnerships Office.

Cultured Status, LLC was selected through a best value procurement approach evaluated on price and past performance criteria. The company's SBA certifications include Economically Disadvantaged Women-Owned Small Business (EDWOSB), Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), and HUBZone Firm designations, positioning it competitively for federal small business set-asides. The contractor will designate a Project Manager to oversee advertising efforts and provide quality assurance support throughout the performance period, with all services performed at the Ralph Engelstad Arena in Grand Forks. This contract aligns with the Air Force's recruitment objectives by leveraging high-visibility advertising opportunities at collegiate sporting events.
