Notification of the SEC's Intent to Award a Single Source Purchase Order for subscription to Institutional Investor Journals

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) intends to award a fixed-price purchase order on a single source basis to Pageant Media Limited for online enterprise subscription to multiple investment publications. The Contracting Officer has determined that Pageant Media Limited is the only source that can reasonably meet the SEC's requirement in accordance with FAR Part 13.106-1(b) because the required publications (Institutional Investment Journals) are under copyright and therefore, not available from any other source.

The SEC intends to award a purchase order to Pageant Media Limited on or about February 12, 2019. The period of performance of the purchase order is anticipated to be one (1) Base Period of 12 months and two (2) Option Periods of 12 months each. The total award value will be below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.
