The Department of Energy (DOE), Office of the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Office of Program Analysis and Evaluation (CF-20), has a requirement for two [2] proprietary subscription services - Solar Gold and Smart Grid Gold market research subscription services. Approximately a dozen analysts and senior management CFO staff will have access to GREENTECH MEDIA INC?s GTM Research subscription service, a data-driven energy data and analysis research service. The purchase of the subscription services is meant to support budget decision making by senior Departmental leadership, for the Department?s large energy technology portfolio. GREENTECH MEDIA INC. grants the Department of Energy access to the reports, sources, tools and features, to include Market reports and quarterly market analysis, contained within the Gold Solar Market Research and the Gold Smart Grid Research packages. The Government intends to award a sole source purchase order to GREENTECH MEDIA INC. in August 2012. The period of performance for this award will be a twelve (12) month base year with options not to exceed a total of 36 months. This award will not exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold.

Market research has revealed no other service with as detailed or thorough a database in this regard. In accordance with Competition in Contracting Act, 41 USC 253 [c] [1], as implemented by FAR 6.302-1, other than full and open competition is authorized when there is only one responsible source and no other supplies and services will satisfy agency requirements.
