- Word doc for Notice of Contract Action N otice Type: Special Notice of Contract Action J&A Statutory Authority: 41 U.S.C. 1901, as implemented by FAR 13.5, Simplified Acquisition Procedures for Certain Commercial Items Anticipated Contract Award Date: 24 August 2017 Contract Award Number: FA8052-17-P-0013 Synopsis: 773rd ESS located at Joint Base Lackland San Antonio, TX, intends to extend the current Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) Family Advocacy Program (FAPNet) and Exceptional Family Member Program (Q-base) Automated Systems for three (3) months to Three Wire Systems, LLC, 3130 Fairview Park Dr, Falls Church, VA, 22042-4521, under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 13 using other than full and open competition based on Authority 41 U.S.C. 1901, as implemented by FAR 13.5, Simplified Acquisition Procedures for Certain Commercial Items. The proposed contract will procure sustainment and training services in support of multiple United States Air Force (USAF) Medical Operations Agency (AFMOA) web-based computer system applications. The AFMOA programs known as the Family Advocacy Program (FAP) and Exceptional Family Member Program-Medical (EFMP-M), also known as Special Needs Identification and Assignment Coordination (SNIAC) Program, provide a suite of applications or a "Family of Systems" to approximately 1000 end-users. The AFMOA suite of applications include the FAPNet, Family Advocacy System of Records (FASOR), New Parent Support Program (NPSP), Outreach Prevention Automated Log (OPAL) and Qbase. The FAP and EFMP-M programs are managed by AFMOA at Lackland AFB, San Antonio, TX, providing policy guidance, standards and necessary program information to staff at 76 CONUS and OCONUS locations. The AFMOA suite of applications relies upon a highly specialized Xtendable Server, a proprietary web engine. Due to the uniqueness of this Xtendable core, an instructional and training period is required to ensure a smooth transition between the incumbent and the follow-on. Without the knowledge level and involvement of the technical requirements of Three Wire's management staff, risk system errors/ downtime would rise significantly and perpetuate until another contractor can accomplish technical competence. System errors and downtime are unacceptable delays that the Air Force cannot risk as a disruption would jeopardize military families' treatment and safety. Without the FAPNet, there is a high risk that a sexual offender or other deviants would gain access to a vulnerable group of individuals, most specifically children of our military families. Under the contemplated extention contract, Three Wire will provide system sustainment, program management, technical support, and other duties as outlined in the PWS for the FAPNet program. The 773 ESS is currently in the process of conducting source selection activities for the competitive follow on for the FAPNet program. In the interim, it is necessary to use other than competitive procedures to extend the current contract to ensure continuity of services. Absent such an extension, there will be a gap in FAPNet services between expiration of the current contract and the start of performance under the follow-on contract. Three Wire Systems, LLC has the management and personnel infrastructure in place to continue services for the next three (3) months. The CAGE Code is: 4GPT6; the NAICS Code is: 518210. Parties may identify their FAPNet capabilities to the Contracting Officer no later than 10:00 AM Central time on 21 August, 2017. The information shall clearly present evidence that the respondent is fully capable of providing the required systems and as such may contain any information that the interested party feels is relevant. Responses should be sent to: monique.mclaughlin.2@us.af.mil or corey.berry.2@us.af.mil. No telephone responses will be accepted.
