The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has a requirement for access to ScienceDirect, a collection of electronic full-text journals and books published by Elsevier in the areas of science, chemistry, medicine and biotechnology for a base and four option years. The anticipated award date is January 7, 2015.

USPTO is exempt from the Competition in Contracting Act under the Patent and Trademark Office Efficiency Act, 35 U.S.C. 2(b)(4)(A) and the subject requirement is being procured using the Alternative Competition Method as described in the Patent and Trademark Office Acquisition Guidelines (PTAG).

In accordance with the PTAG, the USPTO has identified that Elsevier is the sole publisher, owner and distributor of the database and collection; therefore no further market research was conducted. As a result, no solicitation will be issued.
