About this opportunity
The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation seeks enterprise-wide subscription access to Pensions & Investments Daily and the P&I Research Center, with quotations due July 27, 2026 by 10:00 AM Eastern Time and questions due July 23, 2026. This is a total small business set-aside with a sole-source intent; market research confirms that Crain Communications is the only responsible source providing the combination of proprietary pension fund management data, pension merger and risk transfer information, and specialized analytical tools required by PBGC.
Place of performance is Washington, DC. The contract is structured as a firm-fixed-price award using simplified acquisition procedures under FAR 13.106-1(b), with a base year running September 30, 2026 through September 29, 2027, followed by four one-year option periods through September 29, 2031 and a six-month extension option through March 29, 2032. Award is projected for September 2026. The NAICS code is 513120 (Periodical Publishers) with a 1,000-employee size standard. Evaluation uses Lowest Price Technically Acceptable methodology; technical acceptability is pass/fail with no price premium for technical superiority. Price reasonableness will be established through comparison with prior contract pricing, current commercial pricing, and available discounts. Quotations must include unit pricing for each Contract Line Item Number and must be submitted in Adobe and/or Microsoft Office compatible format via email. Contracting Officer Au Nguyen and Contract Specialist Ray Lee are the points of contact.
