Capital IQ Database Subscription

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Eustis intends to procure a campus-wide network subscription to the S&P Capital IQ financial market research platform for the United States Military Academy Jefferson Library, with sources sought responses due by August 11, 2026. The Government currently intends to award a sole-source purchase order to S&P Global under FAR 12.102(a) but is actively seeking alternative vendors to support a competitive procurement.

Place of performance is the USMA Jefferson Library. The subscription must provide IP-authenticated campus-wide access for cadets and faculty to detailed historical financial data on public and private companies globally, including annual and interim financial statements, capital structures, and financial ratios. The platform must deliver an integrated Excel plug-in with prebuilt dynamic valuation and comparable company analysis models; AI-powered search and analytics (ChatIQ, Document Intelligence, Chart Explainer); executive and board member profiles with relationship mapping; comprehensive merger, acquisition, and divestiture transaction data including deal terms and advisor information; and analyst reports with macroeconomic indicators. Performance requirements specify 99.9% uptime accessible 24/7/365, real-time updates to financial filings and macroeconomic data, and monthly COUNTER-compliant usage reporting.

This is a sources sought notice only; the Government is not accepting quotes, bids, or proposals at this time and will not pay for response costs. Responses should address commercial availability, pricing, firm size certifications, relevant past performance, and recommendations to structure the acquisition competitively. NAICS 519290; PSC 7H20.
