About this file
This is a FAR Part 6 Justification and Approval document for a sole-source contract extension. The Directorate of Public Works at Fort Bliss, Texas seeks to extend recycling and refuse removal services with the incumbent contractor, Adastra Ecological Services, Inc., for an additional 4-month, 12-day period from February 22, 2026, through July 3, 2026. The extension is justified under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source) because the current contract expires February 21, 2026, and the follow-on competitive solicitation has not been completed due to procurement documentation revisions and government shutdown delays. The contractor will provide all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, and supervision necessary to perform refuse removal services at multiple locations including Fort Bliss, Biggs Army Airfield (East Biggs), William Beaumont Army Medical Center (WBAMC), and surrounding training ranges in El Paso and surrounding New Mexico counties. The contract is Firm-Fixed-Price and will be funded using FY 2026 Operations and Maintenance funds from the U.S. Army Mission and Installation Contracting Command (MICC) Fort Bliss.
The procurement action is classified as a sole-source extension to the existing 8(a) program contract W911SG-22-C-0007, with eight potential vendors identified through a sources sought notice published February 5, 2026 (Suntiff LLC, CWS, Freight Runners Inc, SpecPro, Adastra Ecological Services Inc, Access Environmental, BHPE LLC, and SPMC International LLC). The justification emphasizes that the short timeframe and critical nature of recycling services make transitioning to a new contractor impractical without service disruption, and Adastra Ecological Services is uniquely positioned to continue operations due to its familiarity with agency requirements and established infrastructure. Fair and reasonable pricing was determined using an independent government estimate and contract history analysis. The contracting officer certified approval on February 2, 2026, with the extension subject to fund availability.
