- Description
- The National Library of Medicine (NLM) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Comscore Networks, Inc. for the renewal of professional services for the Web Evaluation Project. The contractor shall provide NLM with: a) netScore Internet Audience Measurement Reports, with monthly data; and b) Custom Subdomain Reports, on specific drill-down domains within the NIH top level domain, with monthly data. Comscore Networks, Inc. is uniquely qualified to provide these services. During the previous 2 years, NLM selected comScore Networks to continue to provide the Internet audience measurement service with custom subdomain drill-downs. After further market research, NLM staff determined that comScore was the only vendor able to maintain continuity with the earlier netScore time series data, offer the necessary flexibility in meeting NLM's needs for custom analyses and drill down data, and provide by far the most complete coverage of the domestic (home, school, work) and international user segments based on the largest panel size and thus offering a basis for more comprehensive and accurate usage estimates. Any other source would not be able to meet NLM?s needs. The period of performance is one year, September 1, 2003, through August 31, 2004, or as needed to assure continuity of service provided as a renewal of the current contract. This service will be procured under FAR Part 12 ? Acquisition of Commercial Items. This is not a Request for Quotations (RFQ), nor is an RFQ available, however, all responsible and responsive sources may submit a proposal that will be considered by the NLM. Firms interested in responding to this notice must be able to provide the professional technical services as specified above. Responses should demonstrate the firm?s ability to meet the government?s requirements. Responses are required within 6 (six) calendar days from the publication date of this notice. NLM synopsis No. 03-217 shall be noted on all correspondence to this announcement. Inquiries regarding this procurement may be made to Michael G. Kapsilis, Contract Specialist (301) 496 6546 kapsilm@mail.nlm.nih.gov or Karen Riggs, Contracting Officer, (301) 496 6545.
