- Description
- The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) intends to award a purchase order on a single source basis to Markit North America Inc. �The Contracting Officer has determined that Markit North America Inc. is the only source that can reasonably meet the SEC�s requirement in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b).� The SEC requires a service that will deliver credit default swap (CDS) reference data, including information on entities, obligations, corporate actions and credit events. The data will be delivered through the Wharton WRDS platform and will include the following key features: (1) unique identification codes for CDS reference entities, (2) unique identification codes for pairs of CDS reference entities and reference obligations, (3) information on the legal relationship between a reference entity and a reference obligation, (4) verified corporate events (e.g., corporate actions, CDS succession events, credit events) that potentially affect the pricing and trading of CDSs, (5) unique identification codes for CDS indexes, and (6) verified information on CDS indexes and the constituents of CDS indexes including updated weighting and index factors upon a credit event. �The period of performance for the purchase order is anticipated to be a base year with four, one year options, and will result in a firm fixed price purchase order. This is a notice of intent, not a solicitation.� No solicitation or additional information will be made available with regard to this sole source notice.� However, any responsible source who believes it is capable of meeting the requirement may submit a capability statement to the contracting office no later than Wednesday, June 10th at 5:00 PM, EDT. Interest/capability statements may be sent to Karen Glass at glassk@sec.gov. No telephone responses will be accepted. A determination not to compete the proposed requirement based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
