Contracting Activity.

Department of the Navy, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command Southwest (NAVFAC SW), San Diego, California.

Description of the Action Being Approved.

Request approval to increase the not-to-exceed value of the NAVFAC SW Passenger Vehicle Short Term Rental (STR) Services Indefinite-Delivery/Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) Contract by $1,500,000 from $967,611.83 to $2,467,611.83. The awardee, Hunter Pacific Group, is located at 160 W. Island Avenue San Diego, California 92101-6704.

Description of Supplies/Services.

The Passenger Vehicle STR Services IDIQ Contract N62473-22-D-3611 provides for non-recurring short term rentals of personal vehicles for use throughout the NAVFAC SW area of responsibility (AOR) located at various installations in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, and Nevada. The North American Industry Classification System Code on this contract is 532111, Passenger Car Rental, with a task order range of $50 to $200,000.

The contract is for firm fixed-price commercial products and services and was procured using Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subparts 12.6 and 13.5 procedures as a 100%small business set-aside. On March 7, 2022, contract N62473-22-D-3611 was awarded to Hunter Pacific Group (Cage Code: 1XET4) with a maximum value of $967,611.83 and a maximum contract term of 66 months, consisting of a 12-month base period, four (4) 12-month option periods, and a 6-month option to extend services. Contract N62473-22-D-3611 is currently in its second 12-month option period.

The capacity increase of $1,500,000 is requested an unexpected surge in requirements.

Orders are expected to be placed through FedMall using Fiscal Year 24 Operations and Maintenance, Navy funds. The contract expiration date of March 31, 2027 will remain unchanged.

Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition.

The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C. Section 3204(a)(2), as implemented by FAR 6.302-2, Unusual and Compelling Urgency.

5. Rational Justifying Use of Cited Statutory Authority.

FAR 6.302-2 permits contracting without providing for full and open competition in situations where 1) an unusual and compelling urgency precludes full and open competition, and 2) delay in award of a contract would result in serious injury, financial or other, to the Government.

NAVFAC SW experienced an unanticipated surge of orders under contract N62473-22-D- 3611, due to the arrival of the , Due to the classified ship movements, the installation was just alerted to their arrival and passenger vehicle needs.

The arrival of the two carriers creates a need for vehicles and busses to support hull and crew swaps and includes, but is not limited to, the following requests:

Based upon the ordering history and the estimated demand surge resulting from the arrival of the two carriers, the requested $1,500,000 capacity is expected to meet the immediate unusual and compelling need and provide sufficient capacity to order new requirements in support of installations throughout the NAVFAC AOR without exceeding the FAR 13.5 Commercial Simplified Acquisition Threshold of $7.5 Million under which it was procured.

The Government is currently procuring a follow-on contract to support future requirements before the capacity is exhausted or option period 2 expires, whichever occurs first.

6. Description of Efforts Made to Solicit Offers from as Many Offerors as Practicable.

As noted herein, time is of the essence to ensure continuity of services with no impact to mission. Due to the unforeseen and urgent nature of this requirement, no efforts have been made to solicit offers from additional offerors. In accordance with FAR 6.305, the approved J&A will be posted on SAM.gov within thirty (30) days after award of the contract modification.

7. Determination of Fair and Reasonable Cost.

The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to the Government of the services covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable.

8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition.

There are no barriers to future competition. The follow-on contract will be competed.
