FAR_6.1 Class JA_MOJAVE Bridge Contracts.pdf

This is a Class Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (FAR 6.1) document supporting sole-source awards to incumbent contractors for bridge contracts under the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency's (NGA) MOJAVE Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) program.

The document authorizes seven bridge contracts totaling $34,090,899.83 to maintain mission-critical administrative, management, and consulting support services during the transition from the current MOJAVE IDIQ contracts to the follow-on VERTEX contract. The bridge contracts run from July/August 2026 through January 31, 2027 (six-month period of performance) and are awarded to incumbent contractors: Booz Allen Hamilton, CACI, ManTech, OG Systems/Parsons, S2 Analytics, SAIC, and Vectrus. The justification cites 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR RFO 6.103-1(b) as statutory authority, asserting that only these incumbent contractors possess the unique qualifications, TS/SCI clearances, specialized systems training, and facility access required to execute the work without unacceptable mission disruption. The document emphasizes that transitioning to new vendors would require a 6-12 month onboarding phase, creating unacceptable delays and operational risks. A notice of intent to sole-source the bridge contracts was posted to SAM.gov on July 17, 2026, with consideration given to any responses received. The agency confirms it is executing a competitive Request for Proposal for the follow-on VERTEX contracts to ensure future competition.
