Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Wood Mackenzie
Solicitation # 89243326NFE000245
The Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory plans to award a sole source purchase order to Wood Mackenzie Inc. for subscriptions to U.S. Gulf Coast Pipeline, Louisiana Gulf Coast Crude Storage, and Texas Gulf Coast Crude Storage data services, with an initial performance period from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2027, and two optional one-year extensions through August 31, 2029. The decision to proceed without competition is based on the unique nature of Wood Mackenzie’s proprietary data, which is collected through a network of thousands of patented physical sensors that deliver real-time, verifiable measurements of energy flows across the nation—unlike other providers that rely on self-reported or government-generated statistics. This capability is critical to the Office of Petroleum Reserves, whose mission depends on accurate, timely, and proprietary data for strategic decision-making, and no other known source can meet the same technical and analytical requirements. This notice serves as a formal announcement of intent and is not a solicitation for proposals; however, any entity claiming it can fulfill the requirement must submit written evidence of its capability to the Contract Specialist David Lahey by 5:00 p.m. EDT on August 17, 2026. Responses must be emailed and cannot be made via telephone. The government retains full discretion to determine whether to proceed with a sole source award based on any received responses or to conduct a competitive procurement if viable alternatives are identified. The NAICS code for this action is 541690, and all communications should be directed to the office located in Morgantown, West Virginia.

The Department of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness has awarded a sole-source contract to Allan & MacPhail Consultants Limited, specifically to Mr. Peter Allan, for specialized professional advisory services supporting Canada’s leadership in the international COSPAS-SARSAT Programme. The contract, valued at $653,925 for a two-year base period with an option to extend for one additional year, is justified under subsection 6(d) of the Government Contracts Regulations due to the unique and irreplaceable expertise of the individual contractor, who possesses unmatched experience in COSPAS-SARSAT affairs, international negotiation, and satellite-based search and rescue systems. The contractor will provide strategic, technical, and governance support to Canada’s Permanent Representative, including the preparation of delegation instructions, drafting and analysis of technical papers, real-time advisory support during international meetings, chairing working groups, and contributing to negotiations aimed at modernizing the International Cospas-Sarsat Programme Agreement. Key areas of expertise required include MEOSAR, Second Generation Beacons, Return Link Service, and ICAO Autonomous Distress Tracking, with performance expected primarily in the National Capital Region of Canada, though international travel for meetings is inherent to the role. The contractor must be a Canadian citizen with a valid passport and eligible for a Government of Canada security clearance, and no intellectual property is anticipated to result from the work. The evaluation for award was based exclusively on minimum essential requirements in international program experience, COSPAS-SARSAT-specific expertise, international negotiation involvement, and educational suitability, with no weighting or cost evaluation applied—confirmation that selection was driven solely by technical merit and unique capability. No line-item pricing, clause alternates, or standardized FAR provisions were specified, and the procurement was issued as an Advance Contract Award Notice with no competitive solicitation process. Submission of the capability statement required physical delivery by mail, with no electronic or alternative formats accepted. The contract includes an optional six-month transition period not included in the estimated value, and no subcontracting, organizational conflict of interest provisions, or packaging and marking requirements were outlined, consistent with the purely advisory, non-deliverable nature of the services. Payment, invoicing, and accounting information were not specified, and no Contracting Officer’s Representative was named at the time of award, with oversight remaining under the sole POC, Mathieu Lemieux, Senior Acquisitions Advisor.
