The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is issuing a combined synopsis/solicitation (RFQ FHF‑26‑Q‑0010) for a “brand‑name or equal” commercial product: 50 online Financial Times licenses for a base year (12/23/25‑12/22/26) with a one‑year renewal option (12/23/26‑12/22/27). The product must provide real‑time global financial news, market‑data dashboards, company profiles, expert analysis, downloadable content, advanced research tools with a searchable five‑year archive, and multi‑user digital access with administrative tracking controls. Quoters must submit a technical quotation (max 5 pages, no price, readable font) and a separate price quotation (max 1 page) that breaks out the firm‑fixed price for the 50 licenses for the base year and the option year. Submissions are to be emailed to Natalie Wallace (fhfa.gov) by 10 a.m. ET on 10 Dec 2025, must be ≤ 50 MB (or split into multiple emails), and remain valid for at least 60 calendar days. Offerors must be actively registered in SAM at the time of submission; non‑registered quotes will be rejected. Evaluation will be “lowest priced technically acceptable” under FAR 12 and FAR 13, with FHFA retaining the right to reject non‑compliant quotes or conduct exchanges. The solicitation is unrestricted under NAICS 513120, with no set‑aside.
