RELX-LEXIS NEXIS SOLE SOURCE NOTICE

DFC’s Information Center requires a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) web-based information system providing access to legal/case law, public records, news and business information. We seek a single system/platform that provides a common user interface (simple/advanced/expert searcher) that crosses all of these subject areas and enables us to do cross file searching. In addition the service will provide us with web access to a select group of news files for our Intranet (internal use only) and a newsletter publication system. Our needs are detailed in the General System Requirements and the Content Specific Requirements . The primary users of the service will be the Information Center staff (5 individuals) and selected end-users (currently about 20 end-users) from various DFC departments. A wider group of staff would be designated as “authorized readers” in order to read any newsletters published through the contractor’s newsletter publication system
