About this vehicle
The USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station established this Master IDIQ on February 8, 2016, for publication production services including editing, proofreading, manuscript revision consultation, and layout design, with the last date to order May 12, 2021—the vehicle is now closed to new task orders.
The solicitation contemplated up to four multiple awards under a total small-business set-aside. Task-order activity peaked early: 21 orders in 2016 and 19 in 2017, then declined to 7 orders in 2019 before stabilizing around 11–12 annually through 2020. The most recent task order was awarded September 15, 2020. All 70 task orders issued under the vehicle carried no set-aside designation despite the original total small-business intent, suggesting the actual awardees—including Eaton & Associates Design Company, Moser Cynthia F, Harding Wendy W, and AMY Scherzer—met the small-business requirement organically or the set-aside was not enforced.
Eaton & Associates Design Company dominated by value: 16 orders totaling $417 thousand of the $825 thousand combined potential across all awards. Moser and Harding, each with 16 and 13 orders respectively, together held $239 thousand. The top five primes captured 93 percent of potential value. Activity remained concentrated within the awarding station: the Northern Research Station itself placed 65 orders worth $613 thousand, with only marginal work flowing to Rocky Mountain ($207 thousand across 3 orders) and Southern Research stations.
Task orders ranged from $880 to $96,250 in ceiling value, with most individual orders running $2,600 to $35,000. The vehicle obligated $820 thousand against $825 thousand potential—99 percent utilization. Work focused on technical editing and layout-and-design services for Forest Service research publications spanning audiences from general public to Congressional staff, with performance scattered across NRS regional offices.
