About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency is preparing to procure a one-year subscription to OPIS services from Argus Media Inc. on a sole-source basis, with solicitation anticipated by July 24, 2026. The Defense Contracting Services Office (DCSO) is the contracting activity.
DLA Energy requires access to proprietary pricing publications—Argus Jet Fuel, Argus US Products, Argus Global Markets, Argus Crude Outlook, Argus OMR Fuels, and Petroleum Argus—to view and upload market pricing data for economic price adjustment clauses in fuel contracts and market condition evaluation. The contracting officer has determined Argus Media is the sole responsible source; no other company produces these publications or can fulfill the requirement, though market research identified an alternative source with incomplete coverage.
The contract covers the 12-month period October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027 and will be firm-fixed price using Fiscal Year 2027 funds. The proposed price is consistent with the prior year subscription cost adjusted for standard inflation; no changes to service scope are anticipated. The prior contract (SPE604-25-P-9313) was similarly awarded on a sole-source basis. The sole-source justification cites 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(iii) as statutory authority.
