The U.S. Navy's Bureau of Naval Personnel awarded a $56,520 firm fixed-price purchase order to Relx Inc.'s LexisNexis division on August 1, 2018, for an academic online database subscription with performance in Norfolk, Virginia. The contract carried no socioeconomic set-aside designation and reached its ultimate completion date on August 1, 2022. LexisNexis, a global leader in legal research platforms and investigative software, supplied the Navy with access to specialized legal research databases and content to support the service branch's legal and compliance functions. The award reflects the Navy's reliance on commercial legal information solutions to enable personnel and legal offices to conduct legal analysis and maintain operational compliance.
This purchase order represents a component of Relx Inc.'s broader federal contracting portfolio, which includes substantial indefinite delivery vehicles such as a $690 million Library of Congress FEDLINK program contract and a $5 million Blanket Purchase Agreement with Naval Supply Systems Command. The company's LexisNexis division has maintained consistent federal contracting relationships since 2001 across defense and civilian agencies, providing mission-critical legal research tools, investigative software, and regulatory databases. Reed International PLC, the parent entity of Relx Inc., operates multiple federal information and analytics contracts through its subsidiaries, positioning the organization as a primary vendor for comprehensive digital legal information solutions throughout the federal government.
