Tab1 -EB Class EFO Justification_Redacted.pdf

This Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity document covers contract extensions for Engineering, Professional, and Administrative Support Services (EPASS) for the Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC). The document seeks to extend services for three task orders - EB Eglin, EBW Robins, and EBH Hill Bridge - using OASIS+ contract vehicles, with periods of performance ranging from 4-5 months between May 2025 and January 2026. The extensions are necessitated by delays in the Fair Opportunity Competition (FOC) process, including a protest that was not resolved until December 2024, which created scheduling challenges.

The proposed actions will allow continuation of mission-critical services for approximately 600 contracted employees supporting Air Force programs, including developing armament technologies, joint air-to-surface capabilities, missile systems, and ammunition control point maintenance. The extensions are being pursued on a sole-source basis to maintain strategic sourcing consistency, prevent service disruption, and avoid a lengthy transition period that would occur with a new contractor. The total estimated cost for these extensions is redacted, but the rates will be negotiated based on the original task order competition and compared to similar EPASS A&AS contracts to ensure fair and reasonable pricing.
