- Description
- INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE Clarus Financial SS-OFR-25-043 The Bureau of the Fiscal Service (Fiscal Service), on behalf of Financial Research (OFR) and Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), intends to contract with Clarus Financial Technology, Inc., 6902 Corte Madrid, Pleasanton, California 94566-8606 on a sole source basis for online access to the Clarus Financial Datasets. The NAICS code is 518210 and PSC is 7630. The Contracting officer has determined that Clarus Financial Technology, Inc. is the only source that can reasonably meet the OFR and FSOC�s requirement in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-1(b), for the following licenses: Clarus CCPView (Volumes and Open Interest), CCPView Disclosures, SEF, SDRView Professional and SBSDRView Subscription, API access to all data products and GUI Access for ten (10) users. OFR requires access to an aggregated set of central clearing data across all asset classes including swap classes. Access to a consolidated dataset allows OFR to monitor market activity to analyze the scope, size, and role of CCPs across asset classes (Part 16 data) and public SDR (Part 43) data. The platform should provide data that has been consolidated and cleaned. Access to this or similar information allows OFR to closely monitor OTC derivatives markets on an aggregate level. In addition, Clarus data was used by OFR staff for developing the Financial Developments Derivatives Markets section of the FSOC Annual Report. Due to ongoing research based in part from data provided by Clarus Financial Technology�s products, continuation of that research must require any other product to meet or exceed the minimum features of Clarus� products so not to disrupt or render inaccurate former or current works in progress. The Clarus SDRView, CCPView, SEFView, and SBSDRView data products are the only known products that aggregate publicly available SDR, CCP, SEF, and SBSDR data along with data consolidation and normalization to deliver a finished product. The period of performance for the purchase order is anticipated to be one (1) twelve-month base year with four (4) 12-month options. NO SOLICITATION IS AVAILABLE. A request for more information, or a copy of the solicitation, will not be considered an affirmative response to this Special Notice. Telephone responses or inquiries to this Special Notice will not be accepted. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Fiscal Service will consider responses received no later than 03/14/2025. Responses shall be submitted electronically to purchasing@fiscal.treasury.gov, SS-OFR-25-043/Attn: Starla Kalb � Daniel Vass. Responses must include sufficient evidence that clearly shows your company is capable of providing the requirement described in this notice. Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. If no written response is received by the aforementioned deadline that clearly demonstrates an ability to meet all requirements, and that is more advantageous to the Government, Fiscal Service will make award on a sole source basis to Clarus Financial Technology, Inc.

The name and location of your company, contact information, and identify your business size (Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, 8(a), Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, HUBZone, Women Owned Small Business, Other than Small Business etc.).
