The United States Department of the Interior's Interior Business Center has issued a Sole Source Justification for procuring subscription services from S&P Global for their Commodity Services Model (CSM+) Enterprise Access. This service is essential for the Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR), providing vital industry information and pricing data for energy markets, specifically crude oil, natural gas, and coal. The exclusivity is due to S&P Global being the sole provider whose data meets federal regulatory approval and is critical for ONRR's responsibilities in royalty valuation and compliance auditing. The document outlines that efforts to solicit offers from other sources yielded no responses, confirming S&P Global's unique position. The estimated contract value will be assessed for fairness and reasonableness based on market analysis and historical pricing. The justification emphasizes the necessity of these services for ONRR’s audit and royalty management functions. Furthermore, it notes that other subscription providers do not meet the required standards or federal approval criteria, thus affirming the need for this sole-source procurement.
