Pitchbook software subscription

tional Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) CHIPS Research and Development (R&D) Office requires continued access to the Pitchbook venture capital and private equity market analysis tool platform which delivers data, research, and technology covering private capital markets, including venture capital, private equity, and mergers and acquisitions transactions. This software supports multiple programs including CHIPS SBIR, CHIPS National Semiconductor Technology Center Program, CHIPS National Advanced Packaging and Manufacturing Program, CHIPS Manufacturing USA Program, CHIPS Metrology Program, and the NIST Research Security and Safeguarding International Science program. PitchBook's proprietary data ecosystem and integrated analytical tools include the following key features such as real-time direct data, the Excel plugin for customized modeling, and the Desktop interface are unique to the PitchBook platform and cannot be replicated. These capabilities are critical to the program's operations, and switching to any alternative would require significant retraining, data migration, and workflow disruption, while still failing to match PitchBook's capabilities.
