The modification extends the period of performance from 48 to 72 months, allowing for additional hardware production option lots in Fiscal Years 2025 and 2026, and increases the cost-plus-fixed-fee ceiling for technical and engineering, test, and logistics services. The contract was awarded to an unknown vendor on November 15, 2024 by the Department of the Army Materiel Command Army Contracting Command Aberdeen Proving Ground. The J&A cites the justification under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A) for substantial duplication of cost to the government that is not expected to be recovered through competition.
