The SEC requires subscription to Green Street Advisors' ABS and CMBS databases and newsletters to meet its needs, as this content is copyright protected and unavailable from any other source. The one year purchase order is below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, and the SEC intends to award to Green Street Advisors on April 15th, 2021. While this is not a competitive solicitation and no proposals will be accepted, the SEC will consider capability statements from interested parties by the June 2nd response deadline to potentially meet this requirement.
