The U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) intends to award a multiple award Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) for qualitative and quantitative research projects.

Information about media markets, trends in technology adoption, and audience demographics and preferences are used for these efforts.

USAGM seeks BPAs for qualitative and quantitative research projects. This Statement of Work (SOW) communicates technical requirements for both.
