Intent to award a Sole Source Contract

Added: Sep 29, 2017 1:33 pm The Defense Information Technology Contracting Organization, PL8324, Scott AFB IL, intends to issue a sole source contract to GEM Companies, 550 South Wadsworth Blvd, Suite 500, Lakewood, CO 80226 for Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) & Engineering Support Services at the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Denver, CO location. The proposed contract will provide CAD & Engineering support services currently being provided under Contract No. HC1028-12-D-0004, task orders 0001 & 0002, which expires on September 30, 2017.

The sole source purchase order is required as a result of a post-award bid protest. This bridge contract will provide continued CAD & Engineering support services until the bid protest is resolved and a follow-on contract is established. All work will be performed at the DISA Denver location. The Government anticipates award of a Firm Fixed Price purchase order consisting of a 100 day base period and one 30-day option period for a total performance period of 130 days. This action is critical to ensure continuation of CAD and engineering services as required by DISA. DISA and its stakeholders all depend on the reliability of its facilities to ensure mission success. At a minimum, DISA requires available and effective CAD and facilities engineering services to ensure DISA facilities are structurally sound, capable of meeting mission needs, and in compliance with agency, federal, state, and local standards. A failure of these services would result in a backlog of facility improvement projects and facility reviews, ultimately degrading the readiness and reliability of DISA facilities.

The statutory authority for other than full and open competition is 10 U.S.C.2304(c)(1), only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements. North American Industrial Classification Standard (NAICS) Code 541330, Engineering Services, applies.
