About this file
This is a NASA Shared Services Center Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source document dated February 26, 2026, recommending sole source procurement of FiscalNote software. NASA proposes to negotiate exclusively with FiscalNote for a FY26 software subscription purchase structured as a one-year base period with four one-year option periods, spanning from March 19, 2026 through March 18, 2031. The total estimated cost is redacted in the document.
The NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) requires FiscalNote's legislative and budget tracking tools to support its mission oversight responsibilities and separate appropriation. The justification for sole source procurement emphasizes that FiscalNote is the only product addressing the OIG's specific operational requirements and has been successfully implemented. The document notes that pursuing evaluation or procurement of an alternative software service would be operationally cost and time prohibitive, particularly given the OIG's need for timely budget information during extended continuing resolutions. Competition is deemed impractical due to the unique characteristics of the existing subscription and the software's critical function in supporting the OIG's independent budget oversight authority.

NASA SHARED SERVICES CENTER
RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE
OR BRAND NAME
PICK ONE
Sole Source:
☒I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with FiscalNote only for FY26 FiscalNote Software Purchase + 4 Option Years. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 03/19/2026 - 03/18/2031.
OR
Brand Name Justification:
☐I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate only with vendors who can provide the subject brand name from Manufacture Name for Enter Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Enter Dollar amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is Date.
This recommendation is for the acquisition of supplies or services determined to be reasonably available from only one source/only one manufacture. Competition is impractical for the following reasons (please answer the questions below):
1. What are the reasons for soliciting only the suggested source/suggested brand name? Please provide the unique characteristics of the items or services along with the supporting rationale and the market research performed to substantiate your reason for the suggested source/brand name.
This procurement is for the purchase of an existing software subscription with FiscalNote, structured as a one-year base period with four one-year option periods. The subscription supports the ongoing operational needs of the NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) by providing continuous access to legislative and budget tracking tools essential to mission oversight responsibilities.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
As the OIG has an appropriation separate from NASA, it is imperative that the NASA OIG has all of the information possible to ensure proper budget related items in a timely manner. This is especially important as we tend to spend longer periods of time in continuing resolutions. FiscalNote software is the only product that addresses the OIG’s specific set of requirements and an item that we have successfully implemented. To pursue the evaluation or procurement of an alternate software service would be both operationally cost and time prohibitive.
