About this opportunity
The Securities and Exchange Commission issued a sole source justification notice for contract 50310225P0014 awarding Audit Analytics database and data feed services to The Ives Group, Inc. The procurement provides access to a comprehensive web-based research platform delivering current and historical auditor and compliance information for U.S. public companies, broker-dealers, and registered investment advisors, with licensing for 78 users for public company information, 24 users for accounting and oversight information, and 20 users for broker-dealer and investment advisor information, plus enterprise-wide data feed access. The SEC determined that The Ives Group is the sole source capable of providing the specific datasets and taxonomies required, as no other vendor offers equivalent auditor information, restatement data, Sarbanes-Oxley disclosures, and broker-dealer information spanning at least 20 years with comparable searchable interfaces, email alerts, and downloadable data capabilities. The contract was awarded on April 7, 2025, and is structured as a firm fixed price agreement with a base year and four optional 12-month renewal periods. While the specific contract value was not disclosed in the justification posting, the sole source justification was filed in accordance with FAR Part 13.501(a)(1)(iii) on December 15, 2025.
