Description

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) intends to issue a purchase order to Cision for a 12-month base period commencing May 15, 2022 and four (4) option years.� CFTC currently uses Cision�s cloud-based software as a service platform as both a media contact database and a distribution platform to distribute press releases, statements, and other materials to the public. Cision does not allow third parties to operate and maintain its proprietary solution and CFTC is unaware of any alternative solutions, therefore the services cannot be obtained from any other source. This action is issued pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 13.106-1(b) whereby the Contracting Officer has determined only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS nor a solicitation of offers. However, the Government will consider written responses from all responsible sources received by 5:00pm ET, April 11, 2022. Written responses must include sufficient information to establish capability to fulfill the requirement. Oral communications are not acceptable in response to this notice. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed requirement is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purposes for future Market Research requirements. No formal solicitation package is available. The Government anticipates award by May 15, 2022. The Government will not be responsible for any costs of preparation in response to this announcement.
