- A nnouncement: Presolicitation Notice ACTION CODE: <PRESOL> SUBJECT: Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source for Online Legal Database SOLICITATION NUMBER: PR20061811 RESPONSE DATE: February 14, 2011 1700 hours CONTACT POINTS: Nicholas Martinelli, Contract Specialist, 202-344-3231, FAX: 202-344-1254 Herman T. Shivers, Contracting Officer 202-344-2895, FAX: 202-344-1254 DESCRIPTION: US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) intends to negotiate, on a sole source basis, under authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), with William S. Hein and Co for a subscription to an online legal database. HeinOnline has two online library collections: an image-based Law Journal Library collection, which contains nearly 370 of the top academic legal periodicals, as well as the Federal Register Library, which is also image-based and contains pre-1981 coverage of the United States Federal Register. One of the most advantageous features of HeinOnline is that, being image-based, it provides exact page images, enabling the researcher to view all 7.5 million pages currently available in HeinOnline as they originally appeared in hardcopy (All charts, graphs, and photographs are included in HeinOnline, as well). Other online legal periodical databases do not currently deliver articles in an image-based format, leaving doubt as to whether the text is identical to the original article; charts, graphs, and photographs are not included in these other online databases, either. Also, unlike other legal periodical databases that only supply post-1980 coverage, HeinOnline provides each journal from inception to the most current volume allowed under contract between Hein and the journal. This provides easy access to some of the most influential law review articles ever written. HeinOnline also provide coverage all the way back to the inception of the Federal Register in 1936, and additional releases will include post-1980 coverage. ***Delivery shall be FOB Destination, Washington, DC, and is required within 30 days after receipt of order. ***The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this acquisition is 511120 - Periodical Publishers ***The Government intends to solicit and negotiate directly with William S. Hein and Co. No solicitation package will be issued. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. However, if any interested party believes it can meet the above requirement, it may submit a statement of capabilities. The statement of capabilities must be submitted in writing and must contain material in sufficient detail to allow the Government to determine if the party can perform the requirement. A determination to compete this action based on the responses received is in the sole discretion of the Government. All interested parties must express their interest and capabilities via email. Verifications of receipt of responses are the sole responsibility of the contractor. If no responsive statements are received by February 14, 2011 1700 hours, an award shall be made to the William S. Hein and Co.
