Operation Engage Reach and Impact Report

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is issuing a Sources‑Sought RFI to identify qualified vendors capable of producing a comprehensive “Operation Engage Reach and Impact Report.” The effort will measure the effectiveness of Operation Engage across multiple DEA field divisions by analyzing defined metrics (public‑private partnerships, community awareness, educator/parent engagement, and strategic action plans), conducting up to nine key stakeholder interviews, and delivering a draft and final 50‑page publication (print and 508‑compliant online) that includes citations, graphics with proper copyright releases, and the DEA logo. Required deliverables include a kickoff meeting and workplan, metrics analysis, stakeholder interviews, a reach‑and‑impact report (including completion of the outstanding 2024 report and the 2025 report), and a lessons‑learned report, all to be completed within the base period (Aug 29 2026 – Aug 28 2027) with four optional one‑year extensions. The contractor must follow the DEA Community Outreach Style Guide, write in plain language, and staff the effort with a Project Director (5 %), Senior Writer/Editor (15 %), Research Associate (20 %), and Graphic Designer (5 %). Responses must be submitted electronically in PDF format by 10:00 AM ET on 27 April 2026 to Naomi.S.Collier@dea.gov and include (1) company information and (2) a 1‑to‑5‑page capability statement describing experience in measuring and impact reporting. Small businesses are encouraged to respond individually or via teaming, and all costs incurred in responding are the respondent’s responsibility. The Government reserves the right to use any information provided for future solicitations and to determine the acquisition method (unrestricted or set‑aside) based on the market research.
