The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, is performed at the vendor's location in Bowling Green, New York. Springer Nature Customer Service Center LLC, a foreign-owned academic publishing company and division of the global Springer Nature publishing group, serves as a critical provider of scientific, technical, and medical publications to the federal government and has been registered in SAM.gov since August 2016.
This contract represents a direct award to support the USPTO's access to comprehensive scientific and technical research resources essential for patent examination, policy development, and agency operations.

Through these agreements, federal agencies including the National Institutes of Health, Department of Defense, NASA, and the Department of Energy have access to specialized electronic resources, journal subscriptions, and research publication services across multiple scientific disciplines.
