About this opportunity
The United States Marshals Service intends to increase the funding ceiling for existing contract 15M50022DA4400016 awarded to Gaston & Sheehan Auctioneers, Inc. on a limited sources basis, from $11,738,950 to $16,238,950—an increase of $4.5 million—under authority of 41 USC 3304(a)(1), Unusual and Compelling Urgency.
The contract provides national and international transportation, storage, appraisal, and disposal services for seized and forfeited assets under the Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture Program's Jewelry, Art, Antiques and Collectibles (JAAC) program. The justification cites five factors driving the ceiling increase: increased overall inventory volume; historic market valuation surges in precious metals, with gold prices rising from $1,800–$1,900 per ounce in 2021 to $4,000–$4,100 currently; increased shipping costs and regulations limiting insurable amounts per shipment; unprecedented appreciation in designer brand goods and luxury watches; and increased appraisal expenses. The USMS is conducting a competitive re-procurement expected to conclude by second quarter FY28, and the ceiling increase is necessary to ensure continuity of critical asset custody and disposal operations until a new contract award is in place. The contract is an IDIQ with a 12-month base and four 4-month option periods, initially awarded as a 100% small business set-aside through full and open competition in Fiscal Year 2022. The contract is currently in Option Year 4, with a period of performance from July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027. An Independent Government Cost Estimate determined the anticipated costs to be fair and reasonable based on current pricing schedules.
