About the company
Ipsos Public Affairs, LLC, a foreign-owned for-profit market research firm headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut, operates as a prime contractor (96% of recent awards) delivering survey design, data collection, analysis, and program evaluation services to civilian federal agencies. The vendor competes full-and-open with no SBA set-aside certifications, holding no 8(a), HUBZone, SDVOSB, WOSB, or other small-business designations.
Ipsos Public Affairs holds a commanding position across federal civilian research procurement. The top five customer agencies account for 43% of recent awards, with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 1 and the Department of Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center Austin together anchoring 66 awards valued at $369.8 million in combined potential value. The Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Defense Health Agency, and the Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration round out the concentration. By dollar value, VISN 1 and BLS dominate, representing 24% of the combined potential value across all 298 awards. Ipsos performs survey work spanning veteran mental health research (PTSD studies, moral injury prevalence, suicide prevention), employment statistics data collection (Current Employment Statistics, American Time Use Survey), TRICARE patient satisfaction measurement, COVID-19 and influenza vaccination assessment, and federal employee experience surveys. Recent named work includes a $138.9 million five-year definitive contract with the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Data Collection Center operations supporting Current Employment Statistics (ultimate completion April 21, 2031), a $67 million Defense Health Agency delivery order for TRICARE patient experience surveys through November 2028, a $99 million Chief Evaluation Office BPA with the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Policy through August 2028, a $49 million Bureau of Labor Statistics BPA through February 2027, and a $2 billion Department of Education Institute of Education Sciences PRESTO multiple-award IDIQ through February 2028.
Ipsos Public Affairs sits on five principal parent vehicles anchoring the bulk of current-year task-order activity. The Mission Oriented Business Integrated Services vehicle carries 109 task orders valued at $130.8 million; the GSA Multiple Award Schedule hosts 34 task orders worth $257 million combined potential value; the VA Indefinite Delivery Contract VA70117D0021 spans 31 task orders valued at $67.9 million; Indefinite Delivery Contract 36C24E20D0019 encompasses 8 task orders totaling $94 million; and the NCPTSD Survey Analysis Services IDIQ carries 8 task orders worth $1.9 million. Recent MAS-based activity includes the $113,750 PTSD survey analysis BPA call from GSA (September 2026), the $159,651 Current Population Survey AI supplement call from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (September 2026), the $198,121 American Time Use Survey data-quality assessment call from BLS (September 2024), and the $6.1 million CDC delivery order for COVID-19 and influenza vaccination assessment (award September 2023, ultimate completion October 2027).
Activity has remained flat to modestly declining over the past five years — 18 awards in 2022, trending to 7 awards in 2026 year-to-date — with nine awards (combined potential value $26.5 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete. SCI-reported invoicing on federal service contracts above the $150,000 threshold totaled $104.8 million across FY2022–FY2025, with FY2022 representing the peak at $30.4 million across 30.4 FTEs, declining to $16.8 million across 19.9 FTEs in FY2025. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, median government-paid rates run approximately $263/hr, with senior subject-matter-expert roles pricing through $452/hr and entry-level interviewer positions starting at $37/hr; no security-cleared labor categories are offered. Ipsos self-performs the vast majority of delivery — subcontractors account for roughly 2% of total contractor hours on SCI-reportable prime contracts, with 16 named subs appearing across the portfolio — positioning the vendor as an integrated delivery prime rather than a pass-through.
On subcontracts, Ipsos delivers survey design and data-collection services to Research Triangle Institute (formative research, tobacco-campaign evaluation, CDC national tobacco education campaign evaluation, partnership intermediary support under the Enable & Accelerate Technology Transition program), The RAND Corporation (federal employee personnel vetting surveys, IPAWS public notification surveys), International Business Machines Corporation (data-collection-services modification support), Dix-Gra Inc. (FedRAMP support and data analysis under Survey of Healthcare Experience of Patients IDIQ), and Executive Information Systems LLC (FDA Real Cost Campaign evaluation). Most sub work derives from research and evaluation primes rather than IT or defense-focused integrators.
The vendor's primary NAICS footprint centers on 541611 (Administrative Management and General Management Consulting Services, 167 awards) and 541910 (Marketing Research and Public Opinion Polling, 90 awards), with subordinate presence in 541990 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services, 12 awards) and 541712 (Research and Development in the Social Sciences and Humanities, 8 awards). PSC coding reflects this market-research orientation: Support-Professional Market Research/Public Opinion dominates with 85 awards, followed by Support-Professional Other (43 awards) and Support-Management Other (36 awards).
