4. Statutory and Regulatory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition (see FAR 6.302),): IO U.S.C. 2304(c)( l ) 6.302-1 -- Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements

5. Rationale Justifying Use of the Statutory Authority Cited: Currently INTELLIDYNE, L.L.C. is the incumbent performing the NSS task under W81XWH-08-D-0013 Task Order number 0007 and can start performance immediately, therefore, preventing any gaps in service.

It would be cost prohibitive and time consuming to bring on a new Contractor for the short time needed until the follow on acquisition is complete. To ramp up a new Contractor for such a short effort would cause a loss of efficiency and have a negative impact to the NSS operations for the DHA. In addition, other sources would result in unacceptable delays in fulfilling the agency's requirements.

INTELLIDYNE, L.L.C. possesses the unique insight into the operational infrastructure and situational knowledge required for successful performance without a loss of efficiency and negative impact to support NSS operations for l&O Division. INTELLIDYNE, L.L.C. has vast experience in this area. Their proposed personnel are well qualified and performance satisfactory on the current contract to date.

If the current legacy contract expires, the agency requirements will be seriously impacted by losing IT support services required. This includes but is not limited to, operating and maintaining the entire DHHQ sites network domain as well as its respective network support services and associated infrastructure. A competitive contract to replace the legacy contract is in process for FY19, but will not be completed in time to avoid a work stoppage.

6. Efforts to Obtain Competition: Bids, proposals, or quotations have not been solicited from additional sources as prescribed by FAR 5.207(c)(15). A Bridge contract will be issued to the incumbent INTELLIDYNE, L.L.C .. Based on the expected short term of the contract and the authority of FAR 6.302-1 (a)(2)(iii), the Government may make an award to the incumbent in the case of follow-on contracts.

Under Federal Acquisition Regulation 6.302-1 - Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements policy requires posting of a Request for Information (RFI) and Sources Sought notice prior to soliciting non-competitive acquisitions that are exempt from the requirements in FAR Part 6.

Waiver to the requirement of posting a Request for Information (RFI) or Sources Sought notice prior to soliciting non-competitive acquisitions citing FAR 6.302-1 {a)(2)(iii} "Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements." Was approved by the HCA on October 4, 2018.
