Ventana Productions, Inc.

Ventana Productions, Inc., a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation based in Washington, D.C., provides video production, photography, graphic design, audio production, and multimedia services to federal agencies as a prime contractor, operating predominantly in the full-and-open competitive landscape with selective small-business set-asides on specific task orders. The vendor competes on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and holds blanket purchase agreements with the Department of Labor, Internal Revenue Service, and Department of Veterans Affairs; it does not operate as a subcontractor.

Ventana's capability portfolio centers on motion-picture and video production (136 of 146 recent awards), with representative work including a $1.56 million time-and-materials delivery order from the National Science Board through September 2028 for comprehensive multimedia support spanning strategy, film and video, graphic design, professional photography, and travel; a $210,892.50 firm-fixed-price BPA call from the Department of Labor's Office of Information and Public Affairs through June 2027 for on-site audiovisual production and support; and $83,132.89 in labor-hour audiovisual production services to the Department of Labor's Office of Workers Compensation Programs through February 2025. The vendor also executes smaller task orders across the IRS, National Science Foundation, Census Bureau, and GSA for American Sign Language production, video briefings, local filming, and post-production work, with individual call values typically in the $5,000 to $30,000 range.

Customer concentration is pronounced. The top five customer agencies by award count account for 68% of recent awards, but the dollar distribution skews differently: GSA Federal Acquisition Service anchors $26.7 million in combined potential value (primarily the $26 million base Multiple Award Schedule contract itself), while the Department of Veterans Affairs Headquarters carries 47 awards totaling $13.9 million, and the Department of Labor's Office of Information and Public Affairs holds 13 awards worth $9 million. The Census Bureau and National Science Foundation contribute $9.1 million and $4.5 million respectively. This tension reflects the distinction between task-order volume (Veterans Affairs and IRS dominate count) and contract-vehicle ceiling value (GSA MAS and large DOL/Census Bureau deals dominate dollars).

Ventana's primary vehicle is the GSA Multiple Award Schedule, from which it draws 96 task orders valued at $34.2 million combined potential value. The Professional Services Schedule carries 51 task orders worth $566 thousand. Blanket purchase agreements with the Veterans Affairs Technology Acquisition Center, IRS, and Department of Labor supply additional task-order volume: VA77716A0022 carries 14 task orders ($205 thousand), and the DOL Audio-Video Production Services BPA accounts for 10 task orders ($236 thousand). In May 2026, Ventana won a re-competed BPA with the Department of Labor's Office of Information and Public Affairs under the GSA MAS, a small-business set-aside with a $2.48 million ceiling through May 2027, one of up to two awardees on that procurement.

Activity has remained modest in recent years — five awards in 2021 and 2022, six in 2023, fourteen in 2024, and two awarded in 2026 as of the source date — with only two awards (combined potential value $298 thousand) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete cliff exposure in that window. The $26 million GSA MAS contract expires in May 2026, a material renewal date. SCI-reported invoiced revenue totaled $2.9 million across FY2022–FY2024, concentrated in FY2022 ($1.3 million across 8.5 FTEs) and FY2023 ($1.5 million across 9.3 FTEs), with zero SCI-reportable invoicing in FY2024, suggesting a shift toward goods-related or sub-$150,000 service-contract work not captured in the SCI dataset. On the SCI-reportable contracts present in the data, median government-paid rates ran around $79/hr, with senior labor pricing reaching $427.90/hr and entry-level work at $66.58/hr. Ventana performs all delivery internally and does not subcontract on the prime contracts captured in this source.
