About this opportunity

The Department of Energy has issued a Notice of Intent to sole source a contract to Bloomberg Finance L.P. for online publications support services. This is not a solicitation but rather a formal notification to industry of the government's intent to award a contract without competition. The DOE's Office of Policy requires specialized support to cover a broad spectrum of business, energy, and environmental issues through Bloomberg's services. The proposed contract structure includes a base period of 12 months followed by four additional 12-month option periods. The intended contractor, Bloomberg Finance L.P., is located at 731 Lexington Ave, New York, NY 10022.

The purpose of this sole source action is to provide the DOE's Office of Policy with essential online publications support that covers critical business, energy, and environmental topics. The agency is utilizing the statutory authority under 41 USC 3304(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1, which allows for sole source procurement when only one responsible source can satisfy the agency's requirements. Industry stakeholders have until September 18, 2025, to respond to this notice, though this appears to be primarily for informational purposes given the sole source nature. No competitive bidding process is anticipated, as the DOE has determined that Bloomberg Finance L.P. is the only source capable of meeting their specific requirements. The contract falls under the NAICS code 519290 for Web Search Portals and All Other Information Services, indicating the specialized nature of the information services required.
