College Board Annual Subscription

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) Fort Knox intends to procure a data service subscription program from CollegeBoard to support the U.S. Army Cadet Command. The service falls under the NAICS category of Software Publishers and specifically involves business application software services. This procurement is structured as a sole source award to CollegeBoard, located at 250 Vesey St. 18th Floor, New York, New York, meaning no competitive bidding process will occur. The agency has explicitly stated that this is not a request for competitive offers and no solicitation will be issued. The opportunity was posted on August 12, 2025, with a response deadline of August 14, 2025, providing an extremely short window for any administrative processes.

This contract opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designations, as it is being awarded on a sole source basis directly to CollegeBoard as the intended contractor. The subscription service is scheduled to run from September 26, 2025, to September 25, 2026, establishing a one-year contract period. No specific award values or budget ranges have been disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice. The procurement is classified under PSC category 7A21 for IT and Telecom Business Application Software with perpetual license software characteristics. The tight timeline between posting and due date suggests this is likely a renewal or continuation of existing services rather than a new procurement initiative. Given the sole source nature and the specific identification of CollegeBoard, this appears to be a proprietary service that only this vendor can provide to meet the Army Cadet Command's data service requirements.
