About this IDV
The Procurement of Research Evaluation and Statistics Task Orders (PRESTO) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract is a multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement established by the Institute of Education Sciences with a $7.5 million ceiling value. Awarded to American Institutes for Research in the Behavioral Sciences (AIR) on September 1, 2021, with ultimate completion on August 31, 2025, this vehicle enables the federal government to procure specialized research, evaluation, and technical assistance services across education-related initiatives. AIR, a non-profit research organization headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, brings extensive expertise in education research, program evaluation, data analysis, and behavioral science applications. The BPA does not utilize a small business set-aside designation and operates on a multiple-award basis, allowing the government to issue task orders for varied research and evaluation requirements without conducting separate full and open competitions for each discrete project.
Two significant task orders have been issued under the PRESTO BPA to date. Task Order 0003, valued at $2.79 million and awarded May 31, 2023, focuses on conducting a systematic literature review and synthesis of evidence regarding the impacts of instructional practices promoting student learning and engagement in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) for grades K-8, with deliverables including publications and quality assessments. Task Order 0005, valued at $2.64 million and awarded September 25, 2023, encompasses a broader range of research, evaluation, and technical assistance services supporting education-related projects. Both task orders utilize cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structures, are scheduled for completion by February 10, 2025, and are performed in Washington, D.C. AIR has engaged qualified subcontractors, including woman-owned and minority-led small businesses such as Analytica, Inc., Development Services Group, Inc., and SRI International, to provide specialized expertise in quality assurance, literature reviews, and practice guide development.
