MATAC Extension EFO - Competition Advocate signature_Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity (EFO) document for extending an existing federal contract under RFO 6.103-1 (only one responsible source).

The Air Force's EPASS Program Office (AFLCMC/AZS) is extending the Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) bridge contract FA8622-25-F-B006 with COLSA Corporation LLC for Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS) supporting the Mobility and Training Aircraft Directorate and Presidential and Executive Airlift Directorate (MATAC/PE). The extension consists of a 9-month firm period spanning July 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027, plus an optional 6-month extension from April 1, 2027 through September 30, 2027. The total estimated value for the 15-month extension is $130 million (current task order ceiling is $111 million). Services include highly specialized professional acquisitions, engineering, scientific research, intelligence, security management, and administrative capabilities vital to research, development, production, and life cycle acquisition activities. Approximately 327 CLINs and 490 contractor personnel equivalents are involved. The extension is necessary to maintain continuous operational support while the follow-on FOPR 77 competitive task order is evaluated and awarded, with planned award on February 2, 2027 and transition through March 31, 2027. The contracting officer determined that COLSA is the only responsible source capable of providing these specific A&AS capabilities within the established OASIS+ MAC IDIQ framework, satisfying the RFO 6.103-1(c)(2) exception to fair opportunity requirements.
