About this IDV

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement valued at $20.2 million to Betah Associates, Inc., a certified small, woman-owned, and minority-owned business headquartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, with a performance period extending through June 4, 2029. The NIJ-RETA (Research and Evaluation Technical Assistance) BPA, issued under the General Services Administration's Multiple Award Schedule, provides comprehensive research support, program evaluation, technical assistance, and communications services to support NIJ's mission to advance knowledge and practice in the criminal justice field. The contract does not utilize any set-aside designations beyond the contractor's inherent small business status, and work is performed at Betah Associates' facilities in Rockville and North Bethesda, Maryland.

Since the initial award in June 2024, NIJ has issued multiple task orders under this BPA totaling approximately $2.5 million across diverse transitional and research initiatives. These task orders address specific research priorities including the 30x30 Pledge Initiative for law enforcement recruitment, victimization research focused on indigenous populations, human trafficking and expungement program analysis, firearms assessment support for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, statistical consulting and research validation activities, peer review product evaluations, and preparation of policy white papers on criminal justice harm issues. All task orders employ time and materials pricing structures with completion dates ranging from December 2024 through January 2026, with one product review order extending through the full BPA term. The work supports transitional initiatives and program closeout activities, reflecting NIJ's evolving research agenda and strategic focus areas within the federal justice research community.
