About this opportunity
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), under the Department of Commerce, issued a Justification for Exception to Fair Opportunity (JEFO) on December 23, 2025, to extend Financial Management Data Services (FMDS) provided by Data Networks, Inc. (DNC) through a modification to Task Order 1332KP25F0044. The extension, authorized under FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(C) as a logical follow-on to the original competed task order, bridges a critical gap in financial management support for NOAA's satellite acquisition programs from December 30, 2025, through February 17, 2026. NOAA justified the sole-source extension due to unforeseen administrative delays resulting from the government shutdown, which necessitated continued service delivery to maintain financial oversight, data integrity, and audit readiness while a competitive recompete procurement is finalized. The modification involves exercising an option period under the hybrid Time-and-Materials and Firm-Fixed-Price ProTech Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Satellite domain contract, with an increase to the task order ceiling to accommodate the extended period of performance. While the specific award value for this modification is redacted, NOAA anticipates conducting a competitive small business set-aside procurement for both FMDS and Financial Management Support (FMS) services with awards expected prior to the current task order's February 17, 2026, expiration date.
