About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Sole Source a Purchase Order from the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC). The USITC intends to award a sole source contract to Michael Sposi (4947 Creighton Drive, Dallas, Texas 75214-2124) under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, based on the determination that only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. The contract is classified under NAICS Code 541690 (Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services) and PSC Code R499 (Support – Professional: Other).
The requirement is for professional services to develop a multi-country, multi-sector quantitative economic model capable of analyzing changes and transition dynamics in trade balance, trade flows, and output following trade policy changes such as tariff modifications. The model must incorporate sector-specific capital with adjustment costs, intertemporal household decisions, and an international bond market to generate endogenous saving and borrowing behavior. The model is essential for the USITC to comply with statutory obligations under 19 U.S.C. § 1332(g) and will enhance the agency's ability to quantify short-run and long-run impacts of trade policy changes on macroeconomic outcomes, including investment, domestic production, the trade balance, and onshoring effects. The model will utilize existing, publicly available datasets where possible, potentially including the ITPD-S maintained by USITC. The period of performance is July 10, 2026 through July 9, 2027. This notice is for informational purposes only; no Request for Quote will be issued. Any information received within five days of publication will be considered by the Government. Inquiries should be directed to Meaghann Peak, Contracting Officer, at meaghann.peak@usitc.gov; telephonic questions are strongly discouraged.

NOTICE TYPE: SPECIAL NOTICE
NOTICE OF INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE – Michael Sposi
NAICS Code 541690 – Other Scientific and Technical Consulting Services
PSC R499 – Support – Professional: Other
The U. S. International Trade Commission (USITC or Commission) anticipates award of a Purchase Order on a sole source basis to Michael Sposi, 4947 Creighton DR, Dallas, Texas, 75214-2124, United States under the authority of FAR 6.302-1, Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
This requirement is for services to develop an economic model that will incorporate sector-specific capital with adjustment costs, intertemporal household decisions, and an international bond market to generate endogenous saving and borrowing behavior.
As part of its efforts to fulfill its mandate, the US ITC seeks to procure a multi-country, multisector quantitative model designed to analyze changes and transition dynamics in the trade balance, trade flows, and output following trade policy changes, such as tariff changes. This contract is essential to produce quantitative analysis to comply with statutory obligations wider 19 U.S.C. l332(g). Specifically, it will enhance the Commission's ability to quantify the short run and long-run impacts of changes in trade policy on macroeconomic outcomes, including investment, domestic production, and the trade balance. A model with these capabilities is necessary to fully analyze the impact of trade policy on onshoring, as well as to estimate the timeline and path of economic changes after a policy is put in place. To the degree possible, this model will rely on existing, publicly available datasets, potentially including the ITPD-S, which is produced and maintained by USITC.
The period of performance:
July 10, 2026 to July 9, 2027
