About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force, Air Combat Command, intends to award a six-month sole-source bridge extension to the incumbent contractor under contract FA4890-21-C-0001 for RC-135 Aircrew Training and Courseware Development services, running 1 November 2026 through 30 April 2027. The attached justification values the action under $10 million and describes it as a Firm Fixed Price modification issued under the "only one responsible source" authority at 10 U.S.C. 3204(c)(1). The notice carries a "No Set-Aside Used" designation, NAICS 611512, and PSC U009.

The extension bridges continuity while a re-compete is pending. An October–November 2025 government shutdown and DoD requirement-scrutiny guidance postponed the competitive award timeline, and the re-compete source selection targets conclusion by 1 February 2027. The Government determined that extending the incumbent avoids substantial cost duplication, unacceptable operational delays, and mission disruption. An RFI issued 9 September 2026, closing 18 September 2026, drew three responses. Market research identified approximately fourteen qualified GSA vendors under NAICS 611512, but the Government concluded that only the incumbent has full staffing, specialized knowledge, and readiness to deliver uninterrupted service over the compressed six-month period without learning-curve delays. Performance is at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska.
