Hard Magazine Copies Subscription

The Department of the Air Force, through the 772d Enterprise Sourcing Squadron, is soliciting a firm-fixed price contract for the procurement of hard copy magazine and international journal subscriptions for 65 DoD libraries and their associated office locations. The contract consists of a 12-month base period running from September 30, 2026, to September 29, 2027, with a requirement that all subscriptions commence by December 1, 2026. The selected vendor must be an established distributor capable of coordinating direct shipping from publishers to each location, including APO addresses via USPS, UPS, or FedEx. The contractor is also required to provide dedicated customer service representatives to resolve issues and replace any items received in error or unacceptable condition at no additional cost. Award will be determined using the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) procedure, evaluating a technical approach volume and a price volume. The technical approach must demonstrate a viable method for meeting all product description requirements to be rated as acceptable. Price evaluation is based on the Total Evaluated Price for the base year, though the government may consider a six-month extension for evaluation purposes. This is a full and open competition under NAICS code 513199, with specific price evaluation preferences for HUBZone small businesses. Submissions are due by September 21, 2026, and must include a pricing schedule and a technical approach not exceeding 10 pages. Invoicing and payment will be processed electronically through the Wide Area WorkFlow system.
