About this opportunity
NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk, Groton office intends to award a sole-source firm fixed-price contract to Ithaka Harbors, Inc. for a JSTOR Evidence Based Acquisition online subscription to the U.S. Naval War College with a challenge deadline of June 18, 2026. This procurement is restricted under FAR 6.302-1 based on patent, copyright, and proprietary data limitations; Ithaka Harbors is the original manufacturer and parent organization of JSTOR, and no authorized resellers or comparable services exist on the open market.
The subscription covers a base year from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, with four optional one-year renewal periods extending through June 30, 2031. The resource is specifically configured to integrate with the Naval War College's existing electronic library management systems, including the Alma Library Service Platform, Primo discovery system, and Springshare library software, providing unlimited access to tens of thousands of academic e-books for students and faculty.
This notice is not a request for proposals or quotations. Interested parties may challenge the sole-source determination by submitting written information demonstrating that an equivalent supply exists and would meet the Government's needs. Challenges must be sent to mary.a.taylor263.civ@us.navy.mil. The Government retains sole discretion to determine whether to compete the requirement based on challenge responses.
