About this opportunity
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), a Department of Commerce agency, has issued a Sole Source Justification Notice for programmatic legal services related to the CHIPS Program, specifically awarding a contract to Allen & Overy LLP for legal support to the Office of General Counsel. The task order, valued at an estimated $400,000, covers a base period of six months with an optional twelve-month extension, and will focus on providing legal advice for CHIPS direct funding transactions, including preparing transaction documents, legal opinions, and policy guidance. The justification for sole-source award is predicated on Allen & Overy's existing institutional knowledge and extensive familiarity with legal and policy considerations surrounding CHIPS awards, with the government arguing that transitioning to a new contractor would create inefficiencies and potential delays in making CHIPS awards. The contract will be executed as a labor-hour type task order, with hourly rates previously determined to be fair and reasonable under an existing IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity) contract. The procurement falls under NAICS category 541110 (Offices of Lawyers) and PSC category R418 (Support-Professional: Legal).
