The U.S. Navy's Bureau of Naval Personnel awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $72,067.38 to the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) on December 7, 2023, for a bundled Science journal subscription. The contract, which carries no set-aside designation, will provide electronic access to Science and Science Robotics journals to support the educational and research mission of Nimitz Library at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The subscription will serve over 5,000 midshipmen, faculty, and staff through December 31, 2028, with the initial award covering the first year followed by four option years. The Navy issued a special notice indicating its intent to award this contract as a sole source to AAAS, as the organization is the established publisher and owner of the copyrighted material.
AAAS, the world's largest general scientific society founded in 1848, primarily supports federal agencies through scientific fellowship programs and policy advisory services. The organization has demonstrated substantial capacity in managing federal contracts and grants focused on advancing science and technology across government, with particular expertise in embedding scientific and technical experts within federal agencies to inform policymaking. This purchase order represents a straightforward procurement of specialized scientific periodicals essential to the Naval Academy's academic and research operations, leveraging AAAS's sole publisher status for these critical journals.
