About this opportunity
The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons Correctional Facilities issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) on April 29, 2026, for insecticide and fungicide spray application services at the UNICOR Lompoc Farms facility. The procurement encompasses pest control services for three crops—Celery (60 acres), Broccoli (60 acres), and Cilantro (60 acres)—with a total anticipated value of $58,000 ($22,000 for Celery, $16,000 for Broccoli, and $20,000 for Cilantro). The justification invokes urgent and compelling circumstances under 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(2), citing an unusually high and rapidly increasing volume of destructive insects infesting government-owned crop fields that posed substantial risk of property loss and reduced yield if standard full and open competition procedures were followed. While the awarded vendor information is not disclosed in the available documentation, Santa Maria Valley Crop expressed written interest in the acquisition, and the contracting officer indicated that quotes would be solicited from known local vendors. The contracting officer and operations manager approved the justification, with UNICOR noting its intent to develop a long-term contract solicitation to prevent similar urgent procurement situations in the future.
