Description

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) intends to award a contract to Bloomberg Industry Group, Inc., for continued access to their proprietary online legal research and data services via Bloomberg Law and Financial Accounting on Bloomberg Tax. The period of the contract will include a 12-month base period commencing February 1, 2024, and four (4) option years. The contract will include access to law information including but not be limited to: Bloomberg Law, E-Discovery & Legal Tech News; Bloomberg Law, Mergers & Antitrust Law News; Bloomberg Law, Privacy & Data Security; Bloomberg Law, Securities Law News; Financial Accounting; ABA/BNA Manual on Professional Conduct; and, United States Law Week. Without access to the unique and proprietary online legal information, CFTC’s attorneys would be forced to rely on reports and stories from the news media for non-detailed reports of events and opinions on developments in subjects pertinent to the operations of the CFTC. Not having detailed information and analysis on developments in these subjects would limit the ability of CFTC’s attorneys to provide legal guidance or make judgements on appropriate actions. Furthermore, not having access to Financial Accounting would limit CFTC auditors’ and accountants’ ability to conduct research on accounting issues the CFTC deals with on a daily basis. This action is issued pursuant to the authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1) implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1, whereby the Contracting Officer has determined only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS nor a solicitation of offers. However, the Government will consider written responses from all responsible sources received by 5:00pm ET, January 27, 2024. Written responses must include sufficient information to establish capability to fulfill the requirement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purposes for future Market Research requirements. No formal solicitation package is available. The Government anticipates award by January 31, 2024. The Government will not be responsible for any costs of preparation in response to this announcement.
