- Description
- THIS IS A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT, NOT AN RFQ. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Acquisition Management (OAM) intends to award a sole source, fixed-price, purchase order for the Office of Environmental Information (OEI) under the authority of FAR Part 6.302-1 to E & E Publishing, LLC in order to procure an annual electronic subscription to the scientific and policy publications. The purpose of this procurement is to obtain an annual electronic subscription to the following five scientific and policy subscriptions: Greenwire, E&E News PM, E&E Daily, Energywire, and Climatewire. These subscriptions provide Agency scientists and technical staff crucial information for policy, scientific, and research determinations. The publications offered by E&E Publishing are critical to EPA?s ability to respond in an effective and timely manner to its research and regulatory needs, as well as to meet the Agency?s mission of protecting human health and the environment. E & E Publishing, LLC does not allow resellers access to their online publications, and therefore for this reason EPA believes E & E Publishing, LLC is the only source that can provide the required electronic subscriptions. NO SOLICITATION FOR QUOTES IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS PROCUREMENT. Notwithstanding, any firm that believes it is capable of meeting the requirements as stated herein, may submit a firm fixed price quote by 12:00 PM EST on Friday, December 13, 2013 for consideration. A determination not to compete the purchase order based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government. All questions and concerns should be submitted via email to Marisol Ventura at ventura.marisol@epa.gov. The point of contact for this requirement is Marisol Ventura, Contracting Officer, at ventura.marisol@epa.gov.
