About this IDV
This multiple-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) was awarded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Research Service, under the Central Program Planning Coordination and Support function, to Midtown Personnel Inc. (doing business as The Midtown Group), a woman-owned small business contractor. The BPA, valued at $7.5 million with an ultimate completion date of October 15, 2022, was established under the General Services Administration's Temporary Administrative and Professional Staffing (TAPS) Multiple Award Schedule on a firm fixed-price basis. The agreement was designated as a total small business set-aside, leveraging the Federal Acquisition Regulation's socioeconomic small business contracting objectives. The primary purpose of this BPA was to acquire library services in accordance with a statement of work, enabling the Department of Agriculture to procure staffing resources on an as-needed basis through delivery orders and task orders.
Four task orders were issued under this BPA between January 2018 and September 2019, collectively valued at approximately $2.08 million, representing approximately 28 percent of the BPA's ceiling value. The task orders encompassed specialized library and information management services, including reference librarian services ($1.5 million), catalog and digitization support services ($388,413.80), and metadata acquisitions specialist positions ($74,014.46 and $114,393.60). These services were performed primarily in Calverton, Maryland, with one location in Washington, D.C. All task orders were completed by November 2023, with final modifications executed to de-obligate unobligated balances and prepare for contract closeout. The BPA structure allowed the Department of Agriculture to flexibly staff its Acquisitions and Metadata Branch and related library functions with professional personnel to support the agency's cataloging, digitization, and information management operations.
