About this opportunity

The Department of Commerce Office of the Secretary has awarded a sole-source Firm-Fixed Price extension to Electrosoft Services, Inc. for IT Infrastructure Support Services to the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) on August 28, 2026, under a GSAR 538.7104-3 justification.

The extension bridges a 30-day gap from August 29, 2026 through September 28, 2026 while BEA re-competes the requirement among 8(a) vendors, with anticipated award on September 29, 2026. The justification cites GSAR 538.7104-3(b)(1)(ii), establishing Electrosoft Services as the sole source capable of providing the required services without interruption due to the specialized and unique nature of the work. As the incumbent contractor, Electrosoft maintains specialized knowledge of BEA's critical IT infrastructure, including computer network maintenance and monitoring, desktop workstation support, ServiceNow maintenance, and survey data entry services. The extension increases the total contract value above the Simplified Acquisition Threshold, necessitating formal justification approval. Place of performance is Suitland, Maryland. Pricing is structured on previously negotiated hourly rates determined fair and reasonable under FAR 8.404(d) and 8.405(d).

(Electrosoft Services) to provide IT Infrastructure Support Services for BEA in accordance with FAR 52.212-8. BEA is currently re-competing this requirement amongst 8(a) vendors with a projected award date of 9/29/2026.

When Contract No. 1331L526F13211135 was awarded, the total contract value was below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). The exercise of this 52.212-8 extension increases the total value of the bridge contract above the SAT, necessitating approval of this justification IAW GSAM/R 538.7104-3.
