- Description
- THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS. This notice is for informational purposes only and is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government. Vendors that believe they can provide the Cogito Software consulting services are invited to submit substantiating documentation in writing to the identified point of contact. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the Government to compete this proposed contract based on responses to this notice is solely at the discretion of the Government. The National Agricultural Library (NAL) uses the "Cogito" automated indexing software. The Cogito system supports the automated indexing of technical journal articles and research reports predominantly collected through publisher supplied data streams. The system supports NAL's strategic goal to significantly increase the number of articles indexed per year in the AGRICOLA and PubAg databases while achieving a baseline quality standard. The software is also used to support the indexing of other items outside of NAL workflows, such as the indexing of ARS research projects for the ARIS database and indexing of USDA Forest Service literature for TreeSearch database. NAL needs to acquire consulting services and training to support NAL's use of the Cogito software for automated indexing. Professional services are required to maintain the custom Cogito skill cartridges used in the NAL environment. The Government intends to award a FFP contract for these services to Expert System Enterprise Corp. Anticipated Date of Award: 9/25/17
