There has been an influx in the number of HSI agents hired at ICE and SAC San Antonio. Due to this influx, the current $16,000.00 budgeted for firing range services under this contract is not sufficient. HSI SAC San Antonio has a need to increase the obligated amount by $10,000.00.

This modification will increase the obligated amount and the total value (ceiling) of this purchase order by $10,000.00, from $16,000.00 to $26,000.00. This will ensure the new hires are able to use the firing range rental services as well as train for proficiency.

4. The anticipated price will be determined fair and reasonable based on one or more of the price analysis techniques described below in accordance with FAR Part 13.106- 3(a)(2). (Check one and provide short description of action taken.)

☒ Market Research.

☐ Comparison of the proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases.

☐ Current price List.

☐ Comparison with similar items in a related industry.

☐ Comparison to IGCE.

☐ Contracting Officer’s personal knowledge.

☐ Other.

Short description of how price was determined fair and reasonable:

The pricing for the rental and training remains the same. The modification is only adding funds onto the contract due to an unexpected influx in hiring personnel.

5. Approval of the Contracting Officer:
