About Agence France Presse

Agence France Presse, a not-for-profit global news agency headquartered in Washington, DC and a child entity of parent AFP, provides news wire services, photo database access, and real-time international news content to federal agencies as a prime contractor (94% of recent awards) competing under full-and-open procurement without set-asides. The vendor operates across 16 distinct federal customer agencies with fifty total awards spanning wire services, portal subscriptions, and searchable photo libraries covering NAICS 541512 (News Syndicates) and complementary PSC categories in professional communications support.

Voice of America dominates Agence France Presse's customer base, accounting for 10 awards worth $17.7 million in combined potential value — 86% of the vendor's entire portfolio. The next tier includes the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (2 awards, $646 thousand), the USAID Bureau for Legislative and Public Affairs (6 awards, $449 thousand), the Defense Information Systems Agency (2 awards, $427 thousand), and the Department of the Army Southern Command (3 awards, $344 thousand). The top five customers by potential value cover 94% of the combined portfolio, with Voice of America's $17.7 million share nearly seventeen times larger than the next customer. Revenue concentration is extreme: Voice of America's September 2022 definitive contract for wire services runs $9.93 million with a five-year term through September 2027, anchoring most of the portfolio's dollar exposure.

Agence France Presse sits on two named parent vehicles — the One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services with two task orders and USSOCOM Wide Mission Support with one task order. Recent representative prime awards include a $9.93 million five-year Voice of America definitive contract for wire services (September 2022), a $600,000 Voice of America purchase order for comprehensive news wire and photo database services (June 2026), a $278.5 thousand DISA definitive contract for news wire services through September 2030 (July 2025), and a $120.7 thousand Bureau for Legislative and Public Affairs five-year subscription for searchable professional news and editorial photos (August 2024). Three awards totaling $10.7 million reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating near-term recompete exposure. Subcontract activity is minimal — two General Dynamics Information Technology sub awards for technical support services in 2024 and 2025 — with the vendor operating overwhelmingly as a prime. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year across 2021–2026, with obligated dollars at $12.7 million against $20.7 million in combined potential value (61% obligation rate).
