Notification of the SEC's Intent to Award a Single Source Purchase Order to Main Justice

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission plans to award a fixed-price purchase order to Main Justice for a subscription to Just Anti-Corruption, a proprietary product exclusively available through Main Justice's website. The contract's total value is expected to fall below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, with a performance period covering one base year plus four option years. Due to the exclusive nature of the product and its copyright protection, the contracting officer has determined that Main Justice is the sole source capable of fulfilling the SEC's requirement, and therefore, this procurement will not involve a competitive solicitation. The purchase order is intended to be awarded around December 20, 2013, and while this notice does not constitute a competitive request for proposals, the SEC will consider expressions of interest or capability from other parties by the specified response date. Any correspondence related to this contract should be directed in writing to Christina Turner at the SEC. The contract pertains to NAICS code 519190, and the contracting office is located in Washington, D.C. The agency's contact for the notice includes Jeremy J Garrett, reachable via email or phone, for further inquiries.
