About this opportunity
The Department of State Office of Acquisition Management has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for legal services in Tokyo, Japan, awarding contract 19GE5025D0036 to Nishimura and Asahi (N&A) legal firm. The contract is for local legal services supporting real estate transactions for the Embassy compound, structured with a base year and four option years, encompassing 150 hours for a Principal Lawyer and 250 hours for a Lawyer annually. The total estimated contract value is $1,050,000, with hourly rates ranging from $260 to $1,368 and an average of $605. Market research involved contacting 20 legal firms in Japan, with eight responses received, ultimately determining N&A as the only responsible source due to their active engagement in previous Department of State real estate transactions. The sole-source justification emphasizes the need to ensure continuity of legal services, avoid duplicative efforts, and prevent diverting staff attention from critical projects, with the Department planning to limit the contract's use and compete a new contract for future real estate transactions.
