About this opportunity
The Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) issued this Justification and Approval (J&A) document on February 11, 2026, to extend Contract N39430-20-D-2207 with Childs Engineering Corporation for a six-month period from February 11, 2026, through August 11, 2026. The contract provides Waterfront Facilities Inspection (WFI) and Assessment Architect-Engineer (A-E) services supporting Department of Navy facilities across Region 1, encompassing the Northeast, Southeast, Great Lakes, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, with services including underwater and above-water inspections, material condition assessments, engineering support, and design services for waterfront facilities handling fuel, ammunition, and nuclear weapons. The government justified use of other than full and open competition under the "Unusual and Compelling Urgency" authority (10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(2)) to prevent a critical service gap caused by delayed award of a competitive follow-on contract, as NAVFAC EXWC determined that Childs Engineering Corporation is the sole source capable of providing uninterrupted specialized engineering and diving expertise within required timeframes. Funding is anticipated from Fiscal Year 2026 Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Navy funds, with the specific award value redacted in the publicly available documents. The extension serves as a bridge contract while a competitive follow-on contract, structured as a small business set-aside Single Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) A-E contract, is anticipated to be awarded by May 2026 to restore full and open competition.
