The Department of Agriculture Office of the Chief Information Officer awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to Iron Mountain Information Management, Inc. to provide off-site data protection and storage services. Five task orders were placed against the BPA between FY2011-FY2015 for secure off-site tape storage at various USDA facilities, totaling approximately $237k. Services included backup tape storage and maintenance for locations in Kansas City, St. Louis, Fort Collins, and Beltsville. An early task order also procured laptops for the Portland, Oregon office. No set-asides were applied. Performance took place in Ashburn, Herndon, and Fort Collins. The BPA aimed to establish an efficient means for the Department to procure off-site data protection and storage solutions over multiple fiscal years. As the largest public agency supporting American agriculture, the USDA generates substantial data through its research, statistical, and program activities. By establishing an agreement with a specialized provider, the BPA helped the Department's Chief Information Office cost-effectively meet its data storage and compliance needs while leveraging private sector expertise to ensure the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of sensitive agricultural information.
