The U.S. Department of Commerce's International Trade Administration (ITA) has awarded CIC Research, Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business, a $35 million single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) under the Professional Services Schedule (PSS) to provide survey research and data collection support for the Survey of International Air Travelers (SIAT) program through March 2025. This indefinite-delivery vehicle allows ITA to issue task orders for CIC Research to conduct comprehensive surveys and analyze data on the characteristics and travel behaviors of international visitors to the United States, which informs government policies and programs supporting the U.S. travel and tourism industry. Under this overarching BPA, ITA has issued multiple firm fixed-price BPA call contracts to CIC Research, ranging from $4.1 million to $6.4 million, with periods of performance typically spanning one to two years. These task orders task CIC Research with continuing the SIAT data collection and analysis efforts. The contracts do not involve any set-aside designations, and CIC Research has been the sole prime contractor. This federal contract work leverages CIC Research's expertise in conducting surveys of international air travelers to support ITA's mission.
