- Description
- The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) intends to issue a sole source commercial item purchase order, using FAR Part 13.105(b) Simplified Acquisition Procedures in accordance with FAR 5.101(a)(2), with only one responsible source that will satisfy the agency's requirement with Princeton University Library who has a pre-existing database of arts and cultural data and research literature, a system that is easy to use by researchers and non-researchers, has complimentary data-tabulation services and is free to the public, intimate knowledge of and experience with NEA research and publications, intimate knowledge and understanding of other arts and cultural research and data sources, capacity to maintain a large repository of data and literature, including adding new datasets and reports as appropriate, affiliation with and support from a well-known academic institution and/or arts and cultural organization, affiliations and/or partnerships with other data-aggregators to ensure data sharing, and recognition by the arts and cultural community and the general public Cultural Policy and the Arts National Data Archive (CPANDA). The current Administration is committed to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government, as evinced by President Obama's first executive action Memorandum on Transparency and Open Government, which called for a more transparent, participatory, and collaborative government. CPANDA will allow this Government Agency to be transparent by disclosing information rapidly in forms that the public can readily find and use; participatory by offering Americans increased opportunities to participate in policymaking and to provide their Government with the benefits of their collective expertise and information; and collaborative by using innovative tools, methods, and systems to cooperate among themselves, across all levels of Government, and with nonprofit organizations, businesses, and individuals in the private sector. It is imperative that this Contractor's expertise be available to the Agency as soon as possible. This notice is for informational purposes only. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes or proposals nor will a formal solicitation be issued. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. A determination by the Government not to compete with this proposed contract action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.
