RFP Description

Location: Bethesda, Maryland. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announces its intention to negotiate and issue a sole source award to Granicus Government at Carahsoft, 11493 Sunset Hills Road Suite 100, Reston, Virginia 20190 for cloud-based email marketing. Granicus is the only contractor who can provide CPSC access to the GovDelivery platform an email subscriber list featuring millions of consumers. Granicus is also the only FedRamp certified contractor with access to a subscriber base of this kind. Further, the email marketing tactics and trainings available through Granicus are exclusive to the GovDelivery platform and are not available through other contractors. CPSC requires a FedRAMP certified solution to meet the safety requirements for cloud-based services and no other source can meet CPSCs requirements so this requirement will be issued as a sole source. CPSC intends to negotiate this requirement under the authority of FAR 13.106 1(b) and 41 U.S.C. 3304(b)(2)(B). The sole source procurement will be awarded as a simplified acquisition in accordance with FAR Subpart 12 & FAR Subpart 13 procedures. Interested persons may identify their interest and submit a capability statement demonstrating their ability to meet this requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations; however, all quotations/responses received within ten (10) business days of the issuance of this notice will be considered by the government. A determination by the government not to compete this proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any quotation/response must be in writing and can be sent via email to the Contract Specialist at APatel@cpsc.gov by 10:00 am Eastern Time, June 6, 2026. No phone calls will be accepted.
