W31P4Q-20-F-B006 (LSJ 12 Month Ext) rev7 KOLegalSigned_Redacted v2.pdf

This is a Justification Review Document for a FAR Part 8 Limited Sources Justification approving a time-only extension to an existing General Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Task Order.

The document approves a non-competitive modification to Task Order W31P4Q-20-F-B006 awarded to TORCH Technologies Incorporated (CAGE Code 3CBV3), located at 4090 Memorial Parkway South, Huntsville, Alabama 35802-1382. The requirement is for technical support services under the Expedited Professional and Engineering Support Services (EXPRESS) Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) on GSA Schedule Number GS23F0321N. The extension covers an additional twelve-month period of performance from March 17, 2026 through March 17, 2027, providing a bridge for continued technical support to the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) G4 at Redstone Arsenal while a competitive follow-on contract is awarded (anticipated by December 29, 2026). Services include technical manual reviews, environmental impact assessments, ozone-depleting chemical compliance support, hazardous materials engineering, and environmental support for depot maintenance operations. The original Task Order ran from September 17, 2020 through September 16, 2025 under full and open competition. The justification cites the need for continuity of services, existing contractor expertise and personnel familiarity with AMCOM operations, and the infeasibility of transitioning to another contractor within the compressed timeframe. Market research confirmed no alternative source could mobilize to meet requirements during this interim period. The modification is justified under Title 41 U.S.C. §4106(c)(3) as a logical follow-on to the original FSS order. Approval is conditioned on fund availability and was executed by the Command Advocate for Competition.
