The Blanket Purchase Agreement was awarded by the United States Geological Survey to Sidem LLC under its Multiple Award Schedule contract vehicle. The BPA facilitates three calls for facilitation and conference support services, Spanish translation services, and biodiversity assessment consulting. Collectively, the calls are valued at over $1.7 million and involve performance across multiple locations including Virginia, Colorado, and California through 2028. The first call is a single-award BPA for $3 million to provide facilitation services supporting the National Centers for Environmental Information's Cooperative Observer Network. Two additional calls were awarded as firm-fixed price BPAs under the MAS: one for $14,728.93 in Spanish translation services performed in Colorado through October 2023, and another for $539,823.67 in biodiversity assessment and consulting services supporting large meeting planning needs in California from September 2023 through June 2024. The awards were made by the USGS Office of Acquisitions and Grants to Sidem LLC, doing business as Sidem, without any subcontractors or set-aside designations. The contract aims to procure professional services including facilitation, translation, and subject-matter expertise to support the USGS's programs, events, and information sharing activities. The services will aid the agency's mission to provide reliable scientific information about natural hazards, landscapes, and natural resources.
