- Description
- This synopsis provides the Government's intent to award a sole source modification to extend the period of performance and increase the ceiling of task order GST0010AJ0044. This task order was originally competed (under the COMMITS NG GWAC) and awarded to Catapult Technology Ltd, 11 Canal Center Plaza, Floor 2, Alexandria, VA 22314 on March 23, 2010. The task order is scheduled to end on March 23, 2015 and has a current ceiling value of $66,752,000. The proposed modification will extend the task order by up to 6 additional months (6 one month options), through September 23, 2015, and will increase the ceiling value to an amount deemed necessary to cover services during the extended timeframe. This sole source action is necessary to allow for uninterrupted OFDA support to handle current international disasters while the competitive follow-on acquisition under the GSA Alliant GWAC is being solicited and awarded. The competitive follow-on Alliant GWAC task order is anticipated to be awarded by February 2015, with a 90 day transition time frame. This task order supports the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Bureau for Democracy, Conflict and Humanitarian Assistance's (DCHA) Office of Foreign Disaster and Assistance (OFDA), and requires end-to-end Information and Communications Technology (ICT) support. The task order requires the Contractor to plan, staff, and implement all of OFDA's Information and Communication Technology (ICT) support requirements, both for OFDA's operations at headquarters and in the field, to respond to natural or man-made disasters around the world. The proposed modification action is for supplies or services for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Catapult is the only contractor who can ensure continuity of services to ensure Government response to current and unknown disasters until the award of the competitive follow-on acquisition is accomplished. Interested persons may identify their interest and capability to respond to this sole source modification requirement. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. A determination by the Government as to whether or not to compete this proposed modification action based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Any questions/responses regarding this sole source action shall be directed to the GSA FEDSIM Contracting Officer, Victor Angkico, via email, at victor.angkico@gsa.gov, and the FEDSIM Contract Specialist, Millicent Hawkins, at millicent.hawkins@gsa.gov, no later than 11:00 am ET, November 6, 2014. The final Justification & Approval supporting this sole source action will publically be made available as required after contract modification award.
