- Description
- Pre-solicitation Notice of Intent to Award a Sole Source Purchase Order to William S. Hein & Co. Inc. for HeinOnline database Subscription. THIS IS A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT, NOT A REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), Office of Mission Support (OMS), Information Technology Acquisition Division (ITAD) intends to award a sole source purchase order to William S. Hein & Co. Inc. in accordance with FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. This sole source procurement is for a subscription to HeinOnline. This action is for the subscription access to two HeinOnline Database modules; Core Collection Plus and Indigenous Peoples of the Americas: History, Culture & Law Collection. These collections include an expansive archive of treaties, federal statutes and regulations, federal case law, tribal codes, constitutions, and jurisprudence. EPA researchers and administrative staff often need to consult historic versions of regulations (CFR), full text law journals and older journal articles, as well as a wide range of other critical legal and government content, on a platform that is end-user friendly. The Office of General Counsel requires a subscription to the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas: History, Culture & Law Collection to support tribal related legal tasks. The EPA intends to award a base year and four (4), one (1) year options for this subscription to minimize re-procurement of this ongoing requirement. William S. Hein & Co. Inc. is the sole provider of the HeinOnline database. Selecting a publisher or distributor other than William S. Hein & Co. Inc. would not be possible. William S. Hein & Co. Inc. is the publisher and the only source that can deliver the electronic version. At this time, William S. Hein & Co. Inc. has not released the rights for the electronic submission of its resources to any other publisher or distributor. NO SOLICITATION OR REQUEST FOR QUOTE (RFQ) IS AVAILABLE. No contract will be awarded based on offers received in response to this notice. Notwithstanding, any firm who believes it is capable of meeting EPA's requirement as stated herein (or equivalent/adequate substitution) may submit a response, which if received no later than July 29, 2022 will be considered. All questions and/or responses must be directed to Phillip Williams via email to Williams.Phillip@epa.gov. No telephone inquiries will be accepted. The point of contact for this procurement Phillip Williams, Contract Specialist, at Williams.Phillip@epa.gov.
