This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a six-month contract extension with the American Council on Education (ACE) for the Defense Human Resources Activity (DHRA) Military Training Evaluation Program (MTEP). The extension will continue support for evaluating, documenting, and making college credit recommendations for learning gained by service members through military training and on-the-job experiences.

The contract modification is being processed under FAR Clause 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services for contract H9821020C0007. ACE will continue to assess military training course documentation, instructional materials, and occupational data using prior learning assessment methodologies and nationally recognized frameworks. They will translate military training experiences into publicly available college credit recommendations for vocational through graduate certificate and degree requirements. A new competitive solicitation (H9821025R0002) is currently open, and this extension will provide a transition period while the follow-on contract is evaluated and awarded.
