About this file
This document is a Justification Review Document for an Exception to Fair Opportunity, specifically for Reserve Component Transition Assistance Support Services (RCTASS) for the National Guard Bureau (NGB). The U.S. Army Contracting Command - New Jersey (ACC-NJ) is seeking to award a non-competitive Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) Task Order to CTR Management Group (CTRMG) under an existing contract due to a service gap caused by a government shutdown. The proposed task order will have an 8-month base period with two additional one-month option periods and one two-month option period, totaling 12 months.
The justification emphasizes the critical nature of the RCTASS program, which provides transition assistance advisors to help Reserve Component members, their families, and veterans access benefits, healthcare, education, employment assistance, and other support services. The government determined that CTRMG is the only contractor capable of immediately resuming these services with minimal startup time, and that a competitive solicitation would cause unacceptable delays. The task order aims to restore essential support services that are mandated by legislation and crucial for maintaining military readiness, family support, and successful transition of service members to civilian life.
