This document is a Pre-Solicitation Notice for a sole-source contract for the procurement of insurance index and integration constituent data feeds from S&P Global by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The CFTC intends to award a one-year base contract with four one-year options for a total period of performance of five years. The agency indicates that the information contained in the S&P Global subscriptions is proprietary, and CFTC knows of no alternative source that can provide the required data, which is essential for the agency's regulatory operations. The Pre-Solicitation Notice states that this is not a request for competitive proposals, but the government will consider responses from responsible sources to determine if a competitive procurement should be conducted instead of the sole-source award. Responses must be submitted in writing and include information to establish the responding organization's capability to fulfill the requirement.
