About this IDV

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a $25 million Blanket Purchase Agreement to Mathematica Inc., a woman-owned research and data analytics firm, for research and evaluation services focused on the USDA Summer Nutrition Programs for Kids (SUN Programs). This single-award, non-set-aside contract, effective through October 27, 2025, leverages Mathematica's established Multiple Award Schedule vehicle with the General Services Administration to procure comprehensive research support services. Mathematica, a subsidiary of the nonprofit Research Triangle Institute, brings extensive expertise in program evaluation, policy research, and evidence-based analytics across federal social service and nutrition assistance programs, having previously conducted significant evaluation work for the Food and Nutrition Service on initiatives including the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program and Women, Infant, and Children program studies.

The initial task order issued under this Blanket Purchase Agreement, valued at $601,274.61 and issued on September 4, 2024, exemplifies the contract's scope by tasking Mathematica with developing a comprehensive study plan, data collection instruments, recruitment materials, and operational systems for the SUN 2026 study. This task order, structured as a firm fixed-price engagement with completion targeted for May 29, 2026, requires Mathematica to obtain necessary Institutional Review Board and Office of Management and Budget clearances to ensure compliance with federal research regulations. Performance is based in Washington, D.C., positioning the contractor to collaborate directly with Food and Nutrition Service stakeholders on the design and implementation of research activities intended to support evidence-based evaluation and potential improvements to the Summer Nutrition Programs.
