State-Level Data on Software Investment, Equipment Purchases, and E-Commerce Shipments
This is a sources sought notice for information and planning purposes only, not a solicitation or request for quotes. The Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) is seeking input from private data providers on datasets that could improve measurement of economic activity across states and counties. Specifically, BEA is interested in data on investment in prepackaged and custom software, investment in equipment, and the geographic flow of e-commerce activity. These datasets would support BEA's regional accounts, including GDP by state and county, input-output frameworks, and related economic indicators. No specific timelines, budget amounts, or performance locations were provided in the notice.
