- Description
- This notice is in accordance with FAR 5.301 and FAR 16.505. Description of Action: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's (OCC) Management Application Services Delivery (MASD) requires continued project support from TeraThink Corporation (TeraThink) for the Personnel Administration and Security System (PASS). The contracting action to which this exception applies will award a follow-on task order to TeraThink to provide said project support. The task order will be awarded on a sole-source basis under an exception to the fair opportunity process for orders under multiple award contracts as provided for in Section H.1 of the contract. Description of Supplies or Services: The follow-on task order includes support for analysis, testing, and project management as part of operations and maintenance activities for future PASS releases. See the performance work statement (PWS) for a complete description of the services and deliverables required under the task order. Authority Cited: FAR 16.505(b)(2)(i)(c) "The order must be issued on a sole-source basis in the interest of economy and efficiency because it is a logical follow-on to an order already issued under the contract, provided that all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order." Reason for Authority Cited: (a) Background In May 2012, the OCC awarded TeraThink a task order (TCC07HQD0052-120018) to provide support to the PASS project. The task order was awarded after a competitive award process involving all three holders of the OCC's Operations Program Management Office (OPMO) indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) support contracts. (b) Justification The scope of work for the follow-on task order constitutes a "logical follow-on" to the original task order, its scope being downstream tasks typical in the system development process. Furthermore, as noted in the background, all awardees were given a fair opportunity to be considered for the original order. Finally, because TeraThink has executed project support tasks for several releases of the PASS project, their team has in-depth knowledge of the project. That experience makes it unlikely that another OPMO contractor could complete the follow-on work as quickly and at a lower cost than TeraThink. Therefore, in the interest of economy and efficiency, the task order should be awarded on a sole-source basis, outside of the fair opportunity process. Award was made 19 September 2013.
