About this opportunity
The Department of Energy Headquarters issued a Class Justification for an Exception to Fair Opportunity on February 10, 2026, authorizing sole-source task orders under its Legal Services Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract without providing fair opportunity to all IDIQ holders when designated exceptions apply. The Legal Services IDIQ contract provides comprehensive legal and advisory support to DOE's Office of the General Counsel across multiple complex practice areas, including Energy Law, Litigation and Litigation Support, Financial Transactions, Intellectual Property Law, Non-profit Law, and Bankruptcy Law. While the awarded vendor information is not disclosed in the notice, the Legal Services IDIQ contract has a maximum ceiling of $50,000,000 over five years with anticipated annual expenditures of $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 distributed across multiple IDIQ holders, individual task orders ranging from $10,000 to $5,000,000 depending on complexity and duration. Three statutory exceptions under FAR 16.507-6 justify the sole-source awards: urgent legal matters with imminent deadlines, specialized expertise possessed by only one awardee, and economic justification for sole-source orders. The Contracting Officer will determine task order pricing based on established IDIQ rates and ensure fair and reasonable costs through transparent annual reporting and competition analysis.
