About this opportunity
The DOD Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU) issued a Notice of Intent to sole source a firm-fixed-price contract to Lyrasis Inc. for renewal of a Springer Nature site license, with responses due November 27, 2026. USU identifies Lyrasis as the only entity offering the Springer Nature Branded Title Journals and Read & Publish Journal Collections it requires, and No Set-Aside Used appears on the notice. The one-year renewal covers calendar year 2027 and maintains Learning Resource Center access to journals used daily by professors, researchers, and students, while enabling USU to publish open-access works in these journals without per-article processing charges. Interested parties must submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation by email to ashley.mcrae@usuhs.edu by 2:00 PM EST on Friday, November 27, 2026, demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government and that they can supply USU's needs. The Government will not reimburse costs incurred in responding.
