- Description
- Sole Source Notice in.PDF version. The Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU), located on the National Naval Medical Campus (NNMC) in Bethesda, MD, intends to negotiate an option year contract with a minimum of one option year, on a sole source basis, under the authority of FAR Part 13.106-1 - Soliciting Competition, with Ovid Technologies, Inc., for online and print subscriptions (please see attached list of titles). These subscriptions are being procured as commercial items in accordance with the procedures in FAR Part 12 (Acquisition of Commercial Items) and FAR Part 13 (Simplified Acquisition Procedures). USUHS researchers to aid in their research require access of the above mentioned subscriptions. The sole source determination is based on Ovid Technologies, Inc. being the sole licensor for journals published by Wolters Kluwer and Lippincott Williams and Wilkins. USUHS has determined that Ovid Technologies, Inc. is the only reasonably available source to meet the government's requirement. The period of performance is September 29, 2010 through September 28, 2011. This is not a request for quote and a solicitation package will not be issued. However, all interested parties may contact the Contract Specialist listed below. Sources interested in responding to this requirement must be able to provide compelling evidence that they can obtain/provide unlimited online/print access to the listed journals/publications, provide the licensing rights, copyright authority and/or provide the service or product as specified above. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contractual action based upon responses received is solely within the discretion of the government. Responses must be submitted electronically, via email, to clarinda.washington@usuhs.mil. The deadline for the submittal of responses is Monday, July 19 at 5:00 PM Eastern Stand Time (EST).
