This is a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Sole Source Justification document issued by the Department of the Navy, Naval Surface Warfare Center, Corona Division for the procurement of an Engineering Workbench (EWB) subscription from Accuris US Holding LLC under the brand name Accuris.

The Navy requires a subscription providing on-demand online access to a comprehensive virtual library and database containing current and historical government and Non-Government Standards (NGS) specifications, standards, and directives for NAVSEA Headquarters, Supervisors of Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair (SUPSHIPS), and Strategic Systems Programs (SSP). The Government requires helpdesk support and annual training for tool use. The acquisition covers a base year with four one-year options spanning FY26 through FY30. The justification establishes that Accuris EWB is the sole source capable of meeting Navy requirements, as it provides the only on-demand electronic access to engineering specifications, standards manuals, and technical publications in a single comprehensive system satisfying all Navy requirements. Accuris maintains extensive agreements with Standards Development Organizations (SDOs) and possesses exclusive multi-year distribution rights that preclude other vendors from establishing competing services. The procurement is conducted under Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Program authority pursuant to 41 U.S.C. § 152(3) via GSA MAS Contract Number GS-02F-024DA. A Sources Sought Notice was posted on the GSA eBuy website in February 2026 (closing March 6, 2026) and an additional SSN was posted on SAM.gov in April 2026 (closing April 23, 2026), with only Accuris responding to both notices. GSA has determined the schedule contract pricing to be fair and reasonable; however, the ordering activity remains responsible for making independent fair and reasonable pricing determinations for individual orders using FAR 15.404-1 procedures.
