AI Contract Overview
The Department of the Interior's Acquisition Services Directorate intends to award a sole source contract to ProQuest, LLC for a perpetual license to the Black Studies in Video collection. This award, made under simplified acquisition procedures with a firm fixed price contract, is noncompetitive due to ProQuest being the only responsible source capable of fulfilling the requirement. The contract provides the Department with permanent access to over 500 hours of documentary films and archival footage covering African American history, culture, politics, and social issues. This resource will be accessible to DOI employees via the DOI Library website, supporting historians and researchers whose work depends on these unique primary and secondary materials. The contract also includes a one-year continuing service fee to enable ProQuest to host the collection on their servers. The procurement aligns with FAR regulations governing sole source acquisitions and is intended to fulfill the agency’s need for a comprehensive Black Studies database. The action aims to facilitate research and enhance the Department’s capability to document and share the Black experience in America. The point of contact for this procurement is Kield Ross at the Interior Business Center Acquisition Services Directorate in Herndon, VA.
