D--Bloomberg Anywhere Subscription for Alex Wood

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Headquarters Procurement Services intends to award a sole source contract to Bloomberg Finance L.P. for a one-year subscription to Bloomberg New Energy Finance services via Bloomberg Anywhere and Bloomberg Terminal, valued at less than $30,000. This action is authorized under statutory authority 41 U.S.C. 1901 and RFO FAR 12.102, which permits non-competitive procurement when only one source can meet the agency’s requirements. The subscription provides critical real-time data, research, and analytics on renewable energy, energy efficiency, carbon markets, storage technologies, and other clean energy sectors, enabling the DOE to make informed decisions on national energy policy and efficiency initiatives. Bloomberg Finance L.P. is uniquely positioned as the sole provider with proprietary models, global expert networks, and comprehensive indices unavailable from any other source, justifying the sole source approach under the criteria of no other supplies or services fulfilling the agency’s needs. The contract is classified under NAICS code 519290 and the Federal Product Service Code DA10 for IT and Telecom business application subscriptions. This is a Notice of Intent, not a solicitation, meaning no competitive proposals are being sought, but interested parties may submit capability statements by June 25, 2026, at 12:00 PM EDT to the Contracting Officer at ellen.baptist@hq.doe.gov with the subject line specified. Responses must directly demonstrate the vendor’s ability to deliver the required services at no cost or obligation to the government and will be used solely to evaluate whether competition is in the government’s best interest. The work will be performed remotely by the contractor, and no questions will be accepted. The anticipated award date is June 26, 2026.
