SBHI Part 12 JA 25Mar2026-Redacted.pdf

This is a Justification Review Document for a FAR Part 12 Sole Source Justification and Approval for a contract with the State of Hawaii, Department of Human Services, Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (Ho'opono Services for the Blind).

The Army Sustainment Command requires cook support augmentation services at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii (SBHI) NCO Academy Dining Facility due to the loss of all 92G (Military Cooks) positions effective April 1, 2026. The requirement includes 7 cooks and 1 manager for a total estimated value of $806,840, consisting of a base period from April 1 to September 30, 2026 ($393,121), Option 1 from October 1 to December 31, 2026 ($205,969), and Option 2 from January 1 to March 31, 2027 ($207,750). The contract will be awarded on a Firm-Fixed-Price basis using Operation and Maintenance Army funds for fiscal year 2026. The Government projects the award for April 2026 and will utilize the State Licensing Agency for Hawaii's existing Dining Facility Attendant Services Contract (W5168W25DA006), which the contractor will perform in partnership with Blackstone Consulting Inc. The justification cites an unusual and compelling urgency under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2) and FAR 6.103-2, as alternative solutions—internal military reassignment, reserve personnel, direct civilian hiring, catered meals, meal vouchers, full food service solicitation, or modification of existing contracts—are either unfeasible due to logistics, timeline constraints, or cost prohibitive. The contracting officer has determined the anticipated cost is fair and reasonable based on IGCE and similar contract pricing.
