About this opportunity

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Mission and Installation Contracting Command Fort Hood has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice to increase the contract ceiling for Mission Support Services (MSS) with Jacobs Technologies Inc. for critical chemical and biological defense testing and evaluation services at the Dugway Proving Ground West Desert Test Center. The modification to contract W91151-21-C-0006, originally awarded on January 21, 2021, and running through December 23, 2025, addresses significant discrepancies in the original Request for Proposal, including over 564 Contract Work Orders issued to date, unplanned overtime hours, and the addition of new labor categories such as Air Monitoring Technician and Photographer. The justification stems from the original RFP's failure to accurately account for contract costs, leading to the contract ceiling being exhausted much earlier than anticipated. While specific award values were not disclosed, the notice indicates a need to increase the existing contract ceiling to support continued operations. A competitive follow-on contract is planned for award in December 2025, with multiple large businesses expressing interest in the future procurement.

Notice text

The purpose of this is to increase in total contract ceiling as a result of the Request for Proposal (RFP) not addressing overtime or providing instructions to offerors and the lack of addressing anticipated overtime, understating actual labor
support, and the necessity to add labor categories under the Mission Support Services (MSS), Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) contract (W91151-21-C-0006) with Jacobs Technologies Inc., 1030 Titan Court Ste 200, Fort Walton Beach, FL 32547-6638. The
inaccurate accounting of these contract costs in the RFP, and submitted proposals by offerors, have resulted in a significant difference between actual costs and forecasted costs for the base year plus four (4) option period contract that has resulted in the contract ceiling being encroached much sooner than reasonable nor anticipated.
