About this IDV
The Institute of Education Sciences awarded an indefinite-delivery contract to NCS Pearson Inc. on February 28, 2023, with a ceiling of $2 billion. This is a multiple-award vehicle under the Procurement of Research Evaluation and Statistics Task Orders (PRESTO) program.
The contract carries no set-aside. Performance occurs at NCS Pearson's Cedar Rapids, Iowa location and where designated in task orders issued by the Institute and its customer offices within the Department of Education.
The originating solicitation sought support across five scope categories: education sciences support activities, assessment development support, communications and outreach, recruitment, and operational support. The vehicle replaces the incumbent Education Statistics Service Institute Network contract and expands the Institute's research, evaluation, and statistics mission requirements over a ten-year performance window.
The contract runs through February 27, 2028. Task orders will be awarded across the life of the vehicle against approved vendors in corresponding scope categories. NCS Pearson competes in full-and-open procurement with no socioeconomic set-aside footprint. The vendor's primary service footprint includes educational assessment platform development, test administration and scoring, standardized testing delivery, secure online and paper-based testing infrastructure, assessment reporting systems, and technical support. Recent task order activity under PRESTO and related IES work reflects sustained demand for assessment and evaluation services supporting federal education agencies.
