About this opportunity
The Federal Maritime Commission's Bureau of Trade Analysis issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) to sole-source an annual subscription to IHS Global Inc.'s Port Import Export Reporting Service (PIERS) data, which provides all U.S. waterborne import and export cargo movement data. The BTA requires this data to analyze the competitive impact of carrier and marine terminal operator agreements under the Ocean Shipping Reform Act of 2022. Market research determined that IHS Global Inc. is the sole provider that allows an unlimited number of records to be downloaded per session, meeting the agency's needs. The contract was awarded on September 29, 2024, though the award value is unknown. A Notice of Intent to Sole Source was posted on SAM.gov to allow other vendors to submit their capabilities.
