Solicitation N00421-16-T-0562 is issued as sole source procurement.  The Government intends to purchase on a firm fixed-price basis, and to solicit and negotiate the proposed purchase order on a sole source basis for THOMSON REUTERS in accordance with the Statement of Work, under the authority implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) by FAR Part 13.106-1(b).  Thomson Reuter's Fundamentals provides all reported financial (balance sheets, income statements, and cash flow) for publically traded companies.  The data is provided in a XML format through FTP client.  The financial data is necessary to populate the financial module of the Cost Department's JCARD database.  Once the data is uploaded to the Cost Department database, algorithms are used to calculate indicators that assess the financial health of a company.  Data must be provided in a format that is well-suited to transcribe the information into the JCARD database.  Other potential suppliers can only provide the data in one massive file that cannot fit on a NMCI computer or requires the user to connect the computer to the company's server through a firewall that would create potential security risk.
