Acquisition Title: Modification to Professional Services Support Contract for the Facility Project Management Office

This acquisition is conducted under the authority of the Multiple Award Schedule Program (see FAR 8.401)

5. A determination by the ordering activity Contracting Officer that the order or BPA represents the best value consistent with FAR 8.404(d):

The Contracting Officer has determined that modifying order 2031ZA24F00430 represents the best value consistent with FAR 8.404(d) and lowest overall cost alternative (considering price, special features, administrative costs) to meet the Government’s needs based on prices on the GSA schedule already being deemed fair and reasonable and the contracting officer will ask for discounts as well.

6. A description of the market research conducted among schedule holders and the results or a statement why market research was not conducted:

In the interest of economy and efficiency, the new work is a logical follow-on to an original Federal Supply Schedule order and the reasons described in section 4b above the Government market research was not conducted. However, if these services continue the Government will seek competition for these services in subsequent acquisitions.

7.a Any other facts supporting this justification:

Order number 2031ZA24F00430 was competed on GSA and awarded on 1 July 2024 and is currently in the first option year with three more option years remaining. The initial requirement was for work at both the existing facility and at the new CPF. Once work was stopped on the new CPF the focus shifted to the DCF. Several issues became apparent that need to be addressed sooner rather than later both for purposes of safety and to allow for completion of BEP’s mission, which includes further work on production of BEP’s next generation note. In the interest of economy and efficiency, and in light of work being stopped at the new CPF, work will shift to the DCF exclusively to support significant modifications required to continue production. This work at the DCF is essential to support new production equipment related to BEP’s next generation of currency As explained in 4b, it is imperative that those issues be addressed immediately. Going out for another contract would produce a long lead time and would be more expensive causing the building personnel to endure an unsafe working environment and risk the potential of harm to employees.

7.b Attachments: Yes No Attached Revised PWS

8. A statement of the actions, if any, the Requiring Activity and Contracting Activity may take to remove or overcome any barriers that led to restricted consideration before any subsequent acquisition for the supplies and services is made:

No actions are being taken because no one could have anticipated a work stoppage at the new CPF. The intent is to remedy the issues by the closing date of this order.
