Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Victoria University

Solicitation # TAIA0000-26-00116

The U.S. Department of Commerce, through the Office of Acquisition Management and the International Trade Administration, intends to award a sole source contract to the Centre of Policy Studies at Victoria University. This 12-month engagement involves the development and delivery of five integrated economic-modeling projects, including model enhancements, updated baseline data, and training materials. The work focuses on specialized CGE model-development services using GTAP, GTAP-Fin, USAGE, and USAGE-TERM frameworks to support trade policy, industrial policy, and macroeconomic analyses. The government has identified Victoria University as the only viable source due to their decade-long history of developing the specific model structures and architectures currently used by the Department. This continuity is essential to avoid the technical risk and duplication of effort that would result from another source attempting to recreate these complex systems. While this is a notice of intent for a sole source award, interested parties have 15 days from the publication date to submit written responses demonstrating their ability to meet the requirements.
