Update #2 · Latest ·

On November 21, 2016, USAID entered into a follow-on Personal Services Contract (PSC) without competition for a period of two years with the incumbent contractor for the same position, Field Advisor. The Justification and Approval (J&A) was approved on October 20, 2016, and is publicized herewith. This J&A sets forth the facts and rationale justifying the use of other than full and open competition in accordance with with Title 48, Section 706.302-70(b)(5) of the Code of Federal Regulations.

The J&A was prepared by the USAID Office of Democracy and Governance under the Bureau for Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance (USAID/DCHA/DRG) for Contract No. AID-OAA-S-17-00002. The J&A provides for critical mission support that requires highly specialized services.  Award to another resource would result in substantial additional costs to the Government and unacceptable delays.

(Note:  The NAICS Code in the Notice of Intent to Award Sole Source posted September 12, 2016 is incorrect.  The correct NAICS Code is 541611.) 

Update #1 ·

The United States Government, represented by the U.S. Agency for International Development, Office of Democracy and Governance under the Bureau for Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance (USAID/DCHA/DRG), intends to enter into a follow-on Personal Services Contract (PSC) without competition for a period of two years with the incumbent contractor for the same position, Field Advisor. A competitive appointment at this time would risk impairing the operation of high-profile foreign aid programs that are essential to USAID and an award to another resource for the continued provision of highly specialized services would result in unacceptable delays. Continuing performance of the proposed PSC with the same contractor is critical to the mission of USAID and is in the best interest of the United States Government.

A Justification and Approval (J&A) pursuant to FAR 6.305 will be publicized upon the contract award.
