The procurement will support comprehensive library management for over 700,000 bibliographic titles, including 80,000+ electronic journals and 400,000 eBooks. Key contract requirements include functional areas such as cataloging, acquisitions, serials, circulation, electronic resource management, online catalog, enterprise-level reporting, and third-party integrations. The USPTO has determined Ex Libris is the only qualified source for this requirement, and will utilize an Alternate Competition Method under the Patent and Trademark Acquisition Guidelines. The solicitation number is ACQ-25-0087, with a pre-solicitation notice posted on March 6, 2025, and a response deadline of March 20, 2025.
The contract is not designated for any specific set-aside and will be awarded directly to Ex Libris without competitive bidding. The total contract value is $1,234,081.00, structured as a five-year contract with a 12-month base period and four one-year option periods. The anticipated award date is March 31, 2025, with the procurement categorized under NAICS code 513210 for Software Publishers and PSC category DA10 for IT and Telecom Business Application Software as a Service.

The system will support the agency's comprehensive library management needs across multiple functional domains.
