TVEyes has won a broadcast monitoring pact with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, following a February solicitation.
The Fairfield-Conn.-based monitoring firm picked up a one-year contract that carries three option years. The pact with FEMA’s office of external affairs is capped at $97,600.
FEMA, part of the Dept. of Homeland Security, had asked for proposals as it sought to modernize and standardize its TV news media monitoring and headquarters broadcast operations.
While FEMA monitors coverage of its operations, it also disseminates disaster and response information to the press and needs to gauge its effectiveness.
There was no incumbent as the work is new.
