About this opportunity

The Department of Homeland Security's United States Coast Guard issued a sole-source justification notice for a task order awarded to Tetra Tech Inc. under the OASIS+ indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contract (GS00Q17OADS0010) to provide contractor technical services supporting the evaluation of Vessel Security Plans (VSP), Piracy Annexes (PA), and validation of participation in Alternative Security Programs (ASP) for the Marine Safety Center's Vessel Security Division. The rationale for the sole-source award emphasizes economy and efficiency as a logical follow-on to existing work, citing the contractor's in-depth knowledge of established processes and requirements as vital for operational continuity, particularly given a new Vessel Cybersecurity Plan Review requirement directed in late fiscal year 2025 that necessitated uninterrupted service during organizational transition. The task order runs from April 6, 2026 through April 5, 2028, consisting of a 12-month base period and three optional periods of 5, 4, and 3 months respectively, addressing the USCG's need to process approximately 720 annual Vessel Security Plan submittals (60 monthly) from the approximately 11,000 vessels mandated under the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002. Although the estimated total price is redacted, the contracting officer determined the cost to be fair and reasonable based on comparison to historical competitively awarded contract prices and OASIS+ compliance guidelines. The USCG has committed to recompeting this requirement competitively on OASIS+ after finalization of the updated cybersecurity requirements.
