Shryock, Ricci

Shryock, Ricci is a sole proprietorship registered as a self-certified small disadvantaged business and for-profit organization in the federal System for Award Management. The entity provides journalistic and multimedia reporting services to the federal government, particularly the United States Agency for Global Media (USAGM) and its Voice of America program.

Through recent contract awards, Shryock, Ricci has delivered multimedia content and reporting services to support USAGM's mission of disseminating information abroad about the United States and its policies. In 2021, the company was awarded a $30,625 firm fixed price call against USAGM's blanket purchase agreement (BPA) to provide services as outlined in the statement of work, with performance occurring through August 2022. The prior year, Shryock, Ricci received a $27,825 BPA call from USAGM to produce multimedia reporting from Senegal at a rate of $175 per assignment from August 2020 through August 2021. No set-asides or subcontracting arrangements were specified under these domestic and international awards aimed at procuring content for USAGM's international broadcasting.

Shryock, Ricci holds two multiple-award BPA vehicles from USAGM's Voice of America to provide journalistic services as prescribed in the associated statements of work. The BPAs, which had ordering periods through August 2022 but no defined potential value ceilings, appear intended to engage the contractor for media production and reporting support on an as-needed basis in both the United States and abroad. No set-aside provisions were mentioned, and the IDVs did not identify any higher-level contract vehicles from which they were sourced. By drawing from these BPAs, USAGM has issued call orders enabling Shryock, Ricci to supply journalistic coverage and multimedia deliverables furthering the agency's statutory international media programs and broadcasting mission.
