About this opportunity

The Department of Labor's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management has issued a Special Notice regarding its intent to sole source the procurement of aggregated current month chicken egg and seafood price data from Urner Barry Publications, Inc. This data will supplement the traditionally collected price data for the agriculture sector and potentially be used in the calculation of Producer Price Indexes published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The purpose of this procurement is to acquire monthly price data for specific chicken egg sizes and various seafood commodities, including tuna, shrimp, crabs, lobsters, clams, oysters, sea scallops, and mussels, covering specific regions. The vendor must provide the data in Microsoft Excel format, with deliveries on the 15th of each month covering the first 14 days of the current and previous months. The period of performance includes a 12-month base period from September 16, 2024 to September 15, 2025, with an option period of an additional 12 months. The contracting officer will ensure the price is fair and reasonable, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics will continue to monitor the market for any additional capable vendors in the future.

Notice text

The PPI Program Office has a need to purchase aggregated current month chicken egg and seafood price data to supplement traditionally collected price data for the agriculture sector with similar data purchased from a vendor.
