About this opportunity
The Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground has awarded a within-scope ceiling increase of $4,339,131.44 to Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA) under a sole-source justification on Task Order W911QX26FA006, awarded February 22, 2024.
The modification accommodates higher-than-anticipated testing and support demands for Fiscal Years 27–29 while maintaining scope within the existing Performance Work Statement. The task order involves support and improvement services for development and maintenance functions including configuration management, distribution of models, user support, and software change request management. The original task order included a base performance period of twelve months with two twelve-month options, plus two technical surge options per year, for a total possible performance period of thirty-six months.
The justification cites FAR 16.507-6(d)(2) as authority for the sole-source modification, establishing this as a logical follow-on to the original competitively awarded order in the interest of economy and efficiency. Pricing is based on cost analysis and adequate price competition from the original award. Market research was conducted from March through April 2025; no further research is required given the modification's nature. The task order is administered under Multiple Award IDIQ Contract W911QX24D0004 by the Adelphi Contracting Division of ACC-APG.
