Summary
This presentation is from the Presto Small Business Industry Day on April 26, 2022, regarding the procurement of research evaluation and statistics task orders. The agenda includes slides on welcome messages, background information, scope categories, and small business considerations. It emphasizes the U.S. Department of Education's commitment to involving small businesses in prime and subcontracting opportunities to promote innovation and competition in federal procurement. The document outlines the re-competition of the Education Statistics Service Institute Network (ESSIN) contract through the new vehicle titled Presto, a multiple award indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contract supporting the Department of Education's mission.

The presentation details five scope categories with associated NAICS codes:
1. Education sciences support activities
2. Assessment development support
3. Communications and outreach
4. Recruitment
5. IES operational support

Task orders will be issued within these categories, with Category 5 being restricted as a small business set-aside. The document explains that Presto scope categories have been updated to reduce barriers-to-entry and provide benefits to industry partners and IES. It also mentions that scope categories and the draft Statement of Work (SOW) may continue to be updated throughout Presto market research.
