JA General Fund Bridge_Redacted.pdf

This Limited Source Justification (LSJ) document covers a bridge modification for the Army General Fund Audit Infrastructure Task Order. The Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground is extending the performance period of the existing contract (W91CRB18F0238) with Ernst & Young (EY) by up to 7½ months. The extension is necessitated by a Government Accountability Office (GAO) protest and the need to provide sufficient time for the source selection team to complete corrective actions.

The task order provides non-personal audit infrastructure services supporting the Army's annual General Fund Financial Statements audit, including developing solutions to control process gaps, monitoring and validating corrective actions, and providing financial management workforce training. The contract is a hybrid of Firm Fixed Price and Time & Materials, with a proposed modification covering the period from 1 July 2025 to 15 February 2026. The extension includes initial two-month, three-month, and additional two-and-a-half-month option periods to ensure continuity of critical audit support services while addressing procurement requirements.
