- Description
- The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) intends to negotiate a sole contract with Elsevier B.V. for a subscription to online journals through Elsevier’s product ScienceDirect. The period of performance for this subscription is one year plus two (2) one-year options. The authority for negotiating on a sole-source basis with Elsevier is made under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 253(c)(1) and Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 which provides for limiting competition in those situations where the supplies or services are available from only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy the agency requirements. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 511120 (Size Standard: 500 Employees). Elsevier is the sole publisher of the journals and no other organization is authorized to publish the journals. This notice of intent is neither a request for proposal nor a solicitation of offers. A determination not to compete this proposed procurement based on responses to the notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. 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 technical capabilities and any other information that demonstrates their ability to meet the NRC’s needs. Detailed capabilities must be submitted to the above address no later than 10 calendar days from the date this announcement appears in the Federal Business Opportunities. Telephonic responses and responses providing insufficient information for evaluation by the NRC will not be considered.
