About this opportunity

The United States Marine Corps (MCICOM-GF) issued a notice of intent to sole source subscriptions to RSMeans Data Online Complete Plus software, with a response deadline of May 26, 2026. The procurement is restricted to Gordian/RSMeans Company LLC, the Original Equipment Manufacturer and sole authorized distributor following its 2014 acquisition by The Gordian Group.

MCICOM-GF requires 30 concurrent user licenses to enable detailed cost breakdowns for materials, labor, and equipment across Marine Corps installations nationwide. RSMeans construction cost databases represent the industry standard for reliable cost estimation with location-specific adjustments critical to supporting USMC infrastructure requirements and fiscal responsibility mandates. The databases include labor, material, and equipment costs for thousands of construction activities, updated quarterly to reflect current market conditions.

The sole source justification rests on exclusive licensing agreements; RSMeans Data Online Complete is available only from the Original Equipment Manufacturer or its authorized distributor. The procurement consolidates existing RSMeans licensing across multiple installations under a single contract vehicle to ensure consistency and universal access. The base contract includes three one-year option periods. User costs range from $900 to $5,200 annually; the Government evaluated and rejected Buildxact as an inferior alternative due to its residential focus and lower depth of benchmarking accuracy.
