About this IDV

The Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) contract 68HERD20A0004 was awarded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to the non-profit research organization Research Triangle Institute (RTI International). The contract, which falls under the EPA's Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contract vehicle, enables the EPA to efficiently procure RTI's technical, advisory, and research services to support the agency's work in the metals, minerals, and energy sector.

The task orders issued under this BPA cover a wide range of activities, including regulatory reviews and technology assessments for industries such as petroleum refining, lime manufacturing, copper smelting, and residential wood heaters. RTI provides specialized expertise in areas like air quality modeling, environmental policy analysis, and stakeholder engagement to assist the EPA in developing and implementing air quality regulations. The work is performed primarily at RTI's facilities in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, and does not utilize any set-aside designations, reflecting RTI's broad capabilities to competitively support federal agencies across multiple domains.
