PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT

NCSA PERFORMANCE WORK

STATEMENT (PWS)

NCSA & PSA Media Services

1.0 General:

This contract is to provide the South Dakota Army National Guard (SDARNG) the ability to advertise at the State and local level using both: (1) Public Service Advertising (PSA); and (2) a hybrid between PSA and paid advertising called Non-Commercial Sustaining Announcements (NCSA) Program or Public Education Partnership (PEP) Program. The primary objective is to reach the SDARNG target demographic of 17-24 year-olds, then 25-35 year-olds.

The NCSA Program is made exclusively through State Broadcasters Associations (SBAs), which are represented nationally by the National Alliance of State Broadcasters Associations (NASBA). Each state has its own SBA which represents its radio and television broadcasters. The NCSA Program broadcasts in a variety of markets (large and small) throughout a given state, while giving priority treatment for available airtime, receiving repeated air-time through a campaign, and is more likely to air in desirable time slots between 6:00AM and 12:00 AM (Midnight) local standard time. The NCSA Program is intended to help Government agencies and nonprofit organizations deliver their important public interest messages effectively and affordably. Various state and local Government agencies use NCSAs to promote transportation and highway safety issues/initiatives, health and human services, emergency awareness and preparedness, tourism, consumer protection and education and many others.

The SDARNG uses NCSAs to broadcast its radio and television announcements in an affordable manner. The SDARNG’s objective is to have NCSA enhance SDARNG’s image in the minds of potential recruits and their influencers, resulting in qualified recruitment leads.

This NCSA Program will further the SDARNG’s objective by increasing public awareness of SDARNG, clarifying public understanding of SDARNG’s mission, and improve the public’s perception of the Guard at the State and local level.

The SDARNG NCSA Program uses a Contractor to provide advertising/marketing services to ensure the SDARNG gets the maximum exposure and advertising value possible within each SBA. The Contractor shall NOT be required to conceptualize and produce the recorded NCSA TV and radio materials. The Contractor shall also not be required to conceptualize and produce new PSA In-Home TV and radio spots. Contractor will be required to duplicate existing both PSA In- Home and NCSA TV and radio spots media (i.e. burn CDs), design creative packaging, and send to each SBA. The Contractor negotiates and establishes an agreement (subcontract) with each SBA outlining the expectations for the airings of the NCSA materials as demonstrated in their proposal.

Funding for the NCSA Program does not directly pay TV or radio stations within a state; rather the funding is provided to the SBAs (stations are members of their SBA). The SBAs then use the funding to provide the radio stations with member services such as: professional education, regulatory, compliance programs, and advocacy at the state and federal level.

1.1 Scope: The Contractor shall provide all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision and quality control necessary, except as specified in Paragraph 3.0 as Government Furnished, to perform SDARNG NCSA Program with PSA services as defined in this PWS.

1.2 Background: ARNG established the national NCSA and PSA

programs in 1995. Initially, NCSA and PSA programs were a task order that fell under the Traditional Advertising Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. The National Guard expanded the NCSA and PSA programs nationally in 1996 after trying it in several states and has been using it ever since. The Army National Guard is the only organization that uses NCSAs on a national basis. In 2001, the determination was made to create a separate IDIQ contract for the NCSA and PSA programs (funding amount changes every year) and the first long-term IDIQ was awarded in 2002 (DAHA-90-02-D-0001). A second long-term IDIQ followed in November of 2008 (W9133L- 09-D-0001).

1.3 Period of Performance (POP): The POP for this Task Order is 12 months, and the anticipated start date of performance is 1 April 2023.
