About this opportunity

The Federal Housing Finance Agency issued a justification-and-notice of intent to award a sole-source contract to Bloomberg Finance L.P. for Bloomberg Desktop Terminals, Bloomberg Anywhere licenses, and a Bloomberg Data Transfer license, with responses due by July 15, 2026. The contract is restricted to Bloomberg under FAR 6.302-1 (only one responsible source); FHFA determined that no competitor offers the depth, breadth, and system integration required, particularly compatibility with FHFA's PolyPaths desktop system.

The Division of Bank Regulation requires six Bloomberg Desktop Terminals (workstation-specific subscriptions), fourteen Bloomberg Anywhere licenses (user-specific, accessible from any workstation), and one Master Data and Derivatives Data and Analytics license to monitor Federal Home Loan Banks' liquidity, market risk sensitivity, and asset quality. The estimated total contract value is $4.7 million. The base period runs one year from September 1, 2026, with four one-year options. NAICS code 519130 applies.

Although this is not a competitive solicitation, FHFA invites expressions of interest from any source claiming comparable capability. Interested parties must submit detailed capability statements, pricing data, and technical data demonstrating ability to meet all requirements via email to Matthew.Marshman@fhfa.gov by July 15, 2026. The government will consider all responses in determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement; the Contracting Officer retains sole discretion to award noncompetitively or to open competition based on responses received.

The Government shall be the sole source of determining an offeror's ability to meet all requirements. The Government will consider all expressions of interest received prior to the close of this synopsis.
