About this opportunity
The Department of the Army National Guard has published a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice to exercise the FAR 52.217-8 option clause under Contract Number W50S8625PA002 for towing, lifting, laydown, storage, and maintenance support services for three MKVI Patrol Boats (Hull numbers 1201, 1205, and 1206) at the Alpena CRTC/AQ facility for the Michigan Air National Guard. The justification cites unusual and compelling urgency under 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(2) due to unexpected complications with vessel inspections that prevent two of the boats from being moved, requiring continued storage and potential repair services. The original contract had a base period from May 20 to September 19, 2025, valued at $126,960.12, and the option extension will provide an additional 6 months of services valued at $84,860.06. While the awarded vendor is not identified in the notice, the original contract was competitively awarded as a small business set-aside with four quotes received. The extension is necessary to prevent mission failure for warfighter training capabilities and is expected to save approximately $92,311.00 in potential costs that would result from changing contractors while allowing time to assess whether the vessels should be repaired or disposed of.
