Wiley Digital Journals

This solicitation notice seeks quotes for a one-year Wiley Core Collection digital journal subscription for the Nimitz Library at the U.S. Naval Academy, with four one-year option periods. The Naval Supply Systems Command is procuring these subscriptions on behalf of the library. Interested parties must submit quotes by November 24, 2023 to be eligible for award. The statement of work specifies requirements for full-text access, article indexing, and technical support response times. Award will be made on a sole source basis to John Wiley & Sons Inc., though other sources may identify themselves as capable of meeting requirements.

There is no set-aside designation. The justification document supports procuring the subscriptions on a sole-source basis from Wiley as the content provider, given that faculty and students have relied on previous annual subscriptions. The place of performance will be the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The potential value is the firm-fixed prices to be quoted for the base year subscription from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024, as well as four one-year option periods.
