Full Description

SUBJECT: Purchase Order award resulting from Purchase Order Request 1333BJ23Q00140009 DESCRIPTION: Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), Office of Policy and International Affairs, Office of the Chief Economist, has a requirement for economic research. The USPTO is a Federal agency within the Department of Commerce. The OCE requires access to business, financial, economic, and marketing data through a self-managed service with centralized access, a high volume of cross-disciplinary data, flexibility of delivery including computing cloud access, and orientation toward academic research. The Walls & Associates National Establishment Time-Series (NETS) database is a unique data resource created for research objectives that require longitudinally-linked, establishment-level historical data. It contains more than 350 data fields covering thirty years (1990-2022) that are linked over time by unique identifiers. These identifiers are associated with establishments rather than companies (establishments are individual physical locations of businesses such as the branch locations for banks whereas company data correspond single-location headquarter level data). Walls & Associates is the exclusive provider of the - National Establishment Time-Series (NETS) Database which is the only historical database of its kind on the market today that provides time-series information on establishment mobility patterns, sales growth performance, job creation and destruction, changes in primary markets, and historical D&B ratings. This comprehensive, transparent and easy-to-use database is currently employed by Walls & Associates as well as hundreds of its clients to do a broad range of establishment dynamics research and analysis. With more than 300 variables related to company demographics, operations and performance, this establishment level database provides information on all businesses, including sole-proprietors and the self-employed, along with public and private companies. It also covers corporate affiliation with detailed linkage, relocation behavior, and industry classifications for every year. NETS counts jobs rather than full-time employees, which means it includes part-timers, undocumented workers and people holding down more than one job. It also provides ZIP codes, street addresses, longitude and latitude for each business covered, so it can track trends at a very granular level. PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER: 1333BJ23P00140003 AWARD DATE: June 22, 2023 CONTRACTOR: Walls, Donald William TOTAL EVALUATED AMOUNT: $200,000 TOTAL CONTRACT VALUE: $300,000
