The 12-month extension allows for the extension of USAMS II MAC IDIQ to 30 Sep 2016, extending the ordering period to 31 January 2015 per 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) or 41 U.S.C 253 (c)(1) and FAR 6.302-1 (Only One Responsible Source and No Other Will Satisfy Agency Requirement). The rationale for this request is due to a lengthy acquisition review cycle above the base level exceeding the established milestones. Task orders will be allowed to continue performance for 20 months after contract expiration, until 30 Sep 2016 for the six Prime holders. This allows time to complete the follow-on source selection. This notice is neither a request for a competitive proposal or a solicitation for offerors. A determination by the Government to not compete this requirement is based on responses to this notice and is solely within the discretion of the Government. This notice should not be construed as a commitment by the Government. If a firm can provide the USAMS II MAC IDIQ services at full performance starting 1 Jan 2014, provide a capability package to the Contracting Officer and a copy to the Contract Specialist by the response date, 7 Oct 2013.
