- Description
- Under the Authority of Federal Acquisitions Regulation, Part 6, Subparts 6.301 and 6.302, the U.S. Census Bureau, on behalf of the Bureau for Economic Analysis (BEA), intends to contract with Walls & Associates, on a sole source basis to provide a one time data purchase for the National Establishment Time Series Database for a combined time series data set on U.S. establishments. BEA's mission is to obtain a database of financial and payroll data, chain of ownership, merger, and acquisition activity for private and publicly traded establishments. The data will be used to clarify the industry structure of each state and allow BEA to make better estimates of industry shares at a sub-national level, and improving the estimation and analysis of sub-national GDP statistics. The data will supplement the limited source data currently used in the computation of regional GDP statistics. The plan to use this data, is to fulfill its contractual obligation to produce prototype estimates of output and value added for U.S. industries engaged in artistic or cultural production. The data will consist of the following: Business Names, Addresses, Contact Information, Headquarters linkages, the number of establishments related to each establishment in its final year, dates of active businesses and start dates of each establishment, Industry Classification, Types of establishments, Estimated Annual Sales at the establishment, and Special Indicators. Walls & Associates has been identified as the only source that can provide the individual data sets of annual data into a time series and adjust the identifying variables in the series to be on a consistent basis across the time series to meet BEA's requirements. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: Date of Award through one year. Telephone request will not be honored. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence, that competition would be advantageous to the Government. In doing so, interested sources must submit pricing and other information that demonstrates their ability to meet BEA's needs. This notice is not to be considered a request for quotations or proposals. No contract will be awarded on the basis of offers received in response to this notice, but offers will be used to determine if a comparable source is available and more advantageous to the Government. If no affirmative written response is received within 15 days from the publication of this synopsis, a contract may be issued to Walls & Associates, without further notice.
