NOTICE OF INTENT TO CONTRACT WITH A SINGLE SOURCE: The Federal Aviation Administration intends to award a single source contract to BPA Services, LLC

The Federal Aviation Administration has issued a notice of intent to award a single source contract to BPA Services, LLC for custom computer programming support services. This special notice informs the contracting community that the FAA will bypass competitive procurement procedures and directly contract with BPAS for these services. The decision stems from time constraints that prevented the FAA from conducting a full competitive process while maintaining continuity of essential programming support. The original solicitation 693KA9-25-R-00012, which was published in August 2024 as a Small Disadvantaged Business set-aside, was subsequently canceled in March 2025 due to Executive Orders 14148 and 14151. The FAA determined that a single source award to the existing contractor was necessary to ensure uninterrupted service delivery.

The primary purpose of this notice is to provide transparency regarding the FAA's rationale for using single source procurement rather than competitive bidding, as required by FAA Acquisition Management System procedures. Interested parties have until 10:00 AM Eastern on September 4, 2025, to submit written questions to Contracting Officer Jose Duran at Jose.A.Duran@faa.gov. This procurement is not available for competition and will be awarded exclusively to BPA Services, LLC to bridge service continuity while the FAA develops a new acquisition strategy. The agency plans to publish details for a future competitive procurement on SAM.gov during the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2026. The notice explicitly states that this announcement is for informational purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation or request for proposals, meaning no other contractors can participate in this particular award.
