Notice of Intent to Sole Source - Data Management Services (MCC Evidence Platform)

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) has published a Notice of Intent to Sole Source for Data Management Services related to the MCC Evidence Platform. This special notice, posted on December 8, 2025, indicates that the government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.501(a). The procurement action supports the continued operation and maintenance of the MCC Evidence Platform, a public website and virtual data enclave that hosts MCC's knowledge products, studies, and datasets. The notice provides an opportunity for interested parties to demonstrate their capability and submit evidence that competition would be advantageous to the government. This action has been posted to allow for transparency and to invite any responsible sources to present alternative proposals or capability statements.

Interested contractors must submit their quotations or capability statements via email to Walter Pemberton and Jacqueline Naranjo by December 22, 2025 at 12:00 PM ET, with "Data Management Services (MCC Evidence Platform)" included in the subject line. Any response must provide clear and convincing evidence that competitive procurement would benefit the government and would not be prohibitively costly or time-consuming. All responsible sources are eligible to participate and submit proposals, with no set-asides applied to this opportunity. The justification for the sole-source approach has been provided in the attached JOFOC document, which outlines the rationale for this non-competitive procurement action. The government retains sole discretion to determine whether to proceed with the sole-source award or conduct a competitive procurement based on responses received.
