- Description
- The Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS) intends to negotiate on a sole source basis with Innovative Interfaces, Emeryville, CA. to provide several programs to customize our library database system. The contractor will develop a 1) linking program, which will enable library users searching a database (ex. PubMed) to link from the article citation directly to the article. They are required to sign in only once to USUHS remote computer services for the entire search session. Linking from article will save time and reduce traffic on the servers; 2) coverage data service subscription program which will enable USUHS to track its current subscription to fourteen different journal collections. Publishers and providers are constantly adding, dropping and changing titles without notification which has required a great deal of staff time to discover and correct these changes to the journal collections. The coverage data service subscription program will solve this problem; and 3) software program which will enable all USUHS staff to understand the terms of the licenses, track changes and problems, automatically get usage statistics and keep a history for future reference of what was purchased, what was not and why, all in one location. The period of performance will be for one year. The statutory authority permitting this award under other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1), as cited in FAR 6.302-1(a) that authorizes USUHS to award contracts when only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
