T006--Video Production BPA

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans Health Administration (VHA), through the Institute for Learning, Education and Development (ILEAD), is soliciting a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for comprehensive video production support services, including scriptwriting, producing, directing, videography, audio recording, graphics production, editing, and broadcast engineering for videos, live satellite television, and multimedia projects. The solicitation will be issued as a Request for Quotes (RFQ) numbered 36C77626Q0178 with a response deadline of May 5, 2026, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time. ILEAD seeks external video production support when internal assets are insufficient to meet service demands across VA facilities nationwide. The government will evaluate quotes based on criteria outlined in the forthcoming RFQ; technical questions will not be answered during the presolicitation phase, though general inquiries may be submitted via email to Glenn Saddler (glenn.saddler@va.gov) or Michelle Rhodes (michelle.rhodes@va.gov) through the solicitation period. The contracting office is located in Independence, Ohio, and prospective vendors should monitor the VA's Contract Opportunities portal for the full RFQ with detailed requirements and evaluation criteria.

This opportunity is set aside 100 percent for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSBs) pursuant to VA Acquisition Regulation 819.7006, making it unavailable to non-SDVOSB contractors. The BPA has an estimated ceiling limit of $1,484,000 over a five-year period of performance from June 28, 2026, to June 27, 2031, with individual task orders estimated at $100,000 per order. Approximately 40 percent of work will be performed at the ILEAD Studio in St. Louis, Missouri, while 60 percent will occur at field locations throughout the United States at various VA medical facilities and other sites. The contract will be awarded as a firm fixed-price BPA with task orders issued electronically, and services for micro-purchases will be paid via Government Purchase Card (GPC). The contractor must provide experienced, trained crew members across multiple labor categories, maintain comprehensive liability insurance, implement quality control programs, and handle all equipment maintenance and security, with performance monitoring including 100 percent inspection of deliverables.
