The Department of the Treasury, Bureau of Engraving and Printing, is seeking a firm-fixed-price contract for a commercially available online global patent database subscription. This turn-key, internet-based platform will support the BEP Security Features Division in searching, organizing, analyzing, and visualizing U.S. and international patent literature.

The government anticipates a need for 10 authorized users with shared access. The contract will be awarded based on a best value tradeoff, where technical capability is deemed more important than price. Evaluation factors include the depth of patent coverage, search functionality, data retention practices, and the quality of technical support. Deliverables include user credentials and instructions, which must be provided within 30 days of award, along with online training resources. Performance will be monitored based on on-time delivery, system responsiveness, and a limit of two minor defects or two unscheduled outages per period.
