About this IDV

This indefinite delivery contract was awarded by the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), a civilian federal agency, to Hightower Communications Inc., a veteran-owned small business. The contract has a ceiling value of $1,000,000 and a period of performance from May 3, 2021 through May 2, 2026. It covers antenna maintenance and repair services for two of USAGM's key transmission facilities - the Edward R. Murrow Transmitting Station in Kinston, North Carolina and the Radio Marti Transmitting Facility in Marathon, Florida. The contracted services include inspections, reports, corrective and emergency repairs, and comprehensive maintenance for high-powered shortwave and medium wave antenna systems. Several firm fixed-price delivery orders have been issued under this IDC, ranging from $3,900 to $296,340, for tasks such as antenna insulator repairs, guy wire replacements, structural assessments, and other infrastructure maintenance to support USAGM's international broadcasting operations. The contract work is not subject to small business set-aside provisions, indicating Hightower Communications' competitive capabilities in the federal market.

The original solicitation sought an IDIQ contract for these antenna maintenance and repair services through a competitive procurement process. No small business set-aside was used, allowing qualified vendors regardless of size to compete. The awarded contract provides USAGM with reliable, specialized technical support to ensure the functionality and integrity of its critical global media broadcasting infrastructure located in North Carolina and Florida.
