$239,776.88 obligated so far on USAspending, July 22, 2025, contract 273FCC25C0003
Description
As published on SAM.gov.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) intends to award a sole source contract to FiscalNote to continue on-line services for the following:
CQ Legislative Tracking (Advanced) +News, U.S. Federal - Legislative Tracking – Advanced, News & Schedules, CQ Magazine - PDF - Add-on, Budget Tracker – Newsletter. Services also includes:
FiscalNote - U.S. State - Legislation & Regulation - All States and CQ AI Generated Transcripts. CQ Roll Call, along with the rest of CQ.com, is owned and operated by FiscalNote, a leading provider of political and business risk solutions. CQ Roll is currently in use at the FCC and another reporting source will not work in providing coverage to encompass CQ’s State Tracker, for legislative histories and congressional research.
Losing CQ would limit the Agency’s resources on matters that relate to Capitol Hill and it would make it exponentially harder for the agency to obtain the information needed about acts of Congress. The period of performance for the proposed contract action is a base period (08/16/2025 – 08/15/2026) plus four (4) twelve-month option periods. Pursuant to FAR 6.302-1 - 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
This is a notice of the intent to award a sole source contract action. It is published for informational purposes only and is NOT a request for proposal or quote. Any challenges to this requirement must be in writing and shall include sufficient information to enable the government’s needs as stated herein. No responses to this special notice are anticipated. Any questions or comments shall be addressed to Ms. Priscilla Cruz at priscilla.cruz@fcc.gov.
