The Air Force is publishing a Sources Sought Synopsis. There is no solicitation available at this time. Requests for a solicitation will not receive a response. The purpose of this Sources Sought is to determine if there are any businesses available that are capable of performing the effort described herein. The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) at Wright-Patterson AFB, OH is seeking sources to:
Provide AFIT-wide electronic access to IOP Scientific Journal Packages B & F with unlimited access to these journals for a base year and two (2) one-year options.
This notice information is to support market research being conducted by AFLCMC/PZIEC to identify capable potential sources. The acquisition strategy has not yet been determined. Market research results will assist the Air Force in determining whether this requirement will be a full and open, a small business set aside, or a sole source acquisition. If this effort becomes a Small Business Set-Aside, FAR 52.219-14, Limitation on Subcontracting will apply. Therefore small businesses that want to be considered for a small business set-aside should demonstrate how they could comply.
This effort is expected to result in a Firm Fixed Price contract. The anticipated period of performance is 01 Jan 2015 - 31 Dec 2015. The applicable North American Industry Classification System Code is 519130 (Internet Publishing and Broadcasting and Web Search Portals). Small Business Size standard is 500 employees.
Companies may be contacted if we need further information. We are trying to understand the marketplace.
