Ceiling_Increase_J_A_Redacted__Paving_IDIQ_.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for a contract modification under other than full and open competition authority. The Air Force Test Center (AFTC), Infrastructure Branch (PZIOC) at Eglin AFB, Florida is modifying an existing firm fixed-price Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with C.W. Roberts Contracting, Inc. (Contract FA2823-20-D-0003) to increase the contract ceiling by $1,000,000.00 from $49,000,000.00 to $50,000,000.00 and extend the ordering period by 22 days from September 8, 2025 to September 30, 2025. The original contract, awarded through full and open competition, covers resurfacing, full-depth reconstruction, and new construction of bituminous and portland cement concrete at Eglin AFB and its surrounding ranges.

The modification is justified under FAR 6.302-2 – 10 USC 3204(a)(2), Unusual and Compelling Urgency, based on critical infrastructure safety and maintenance needs. Primary drivers for urgency include mitigating personnel safety hazards at the Navy Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) school where a partially marked dirt path poses significant risks to pedestrians, and addressing degradation of existing paved areas that could result in catastrophic failure if left unattended. The J&A notes that pursuing full and open competition would require 180-200 days for solicitation completion, creating unacceptable delays in addressing safety concerns and infrastructure projects planned for Fiscal Year 2025. The estimated contract cost is $1,000,000.00, classified as an Individual J&A type. Approval was granted on September 5, 2025.
