- Description
- J&A No. 15-001 JUSTIFICATION AND APPROVAL FOR USE OF OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION 1. Contracting Activity. Regional Contracting Office - Marine Corps Installations West (RCO MCIWEST), Bldg. 22180 Camp Pendleton, CA 92055. 2. Description of the Action Being Approved. The purpose of this Justification and Approval (J&A) is for the continuation of Contract M62974-11-P-8016, with Trex Enterprises Corporation. Contract M62974-11-P-8016 is a fixed price vehicle lease contract awarded by using full and open competition. The contract was awarded for $243,090.00, consisting of (1) base month and (3) one year option periods. As of 17 Mar 2014, it was the RCO MCIWEST's intention to transition from a contract funded by the United Stated Marine Corps, to a Department of Navy, specifically, Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFACENGCOM) contract. Per NMCARS 5201.601-90, NAVFAC is responsible for l ease (over 120 days) of automotive vehicles used by DoN. On 17 Mar 2014, the customer as well as NAVFAC personnel were informed of the need for a follow-on requirement to be facilitated by NAVFAC. Since then, and for reasons unknown to the RCO MCIWEST, NAVFAC has made limited to no progress with a follow-on contract and claims they will not have a new contract awarded to support this requirement until April 2015. As the current contract period of performance expires on 7 Oct 2014, a bridge contract will be put in place from 10 Oct 2014 to 9 Oct 2015 in order to continue services until such time as NAVFAC awards the follow-on contract. 3. Description of Supplies/Services. This Justification and Approval (J&A) is for lease of a Foreign Object Debris (FOD) detection and removal system to include required maintenance and upgrades in support of the MCAS Yuma aviation mission. The bridge contract will consist of a 12 month period of performance, with an estimated value of $72,270.00. 4. Statutory Authority Permitting Other Than Full and Open Competition. DFARS PGI 206.302-2 Unusual and compelling urgency. (b) Application. The circumstances under which use of this authority may be appropriate include, but are not limited to, the following: (ii) Essential equipment or repair needed at once to- (B) Perform the operational mission of an aircraft. An unusual and compelling urgency precludes full and open competition until sufficient time is given to evaluate offers and make source selection decision in a fair and reasonable manner. 5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Statutory Authority. If no contract vehicle is in place, MCAS Yuma will be required to discontinue a FOD detection and removal, leaving the aircraft that utilize the MCAS Yuma airfield at risk for damage. MCAS Yuma is the installation airfield that supports MAWTS-1. The mission of MAWTS-1 is to provide standardized advanced tactical training and certification of unit instructor qualifications that support Marine Aviation training and readiness as well as provide assistance in the development and employment of aviation weapons and tactics. Multiple classes per year are accomplished that involve all USMC aircraft. FOD detection and removal is critical to safe flight operations for MAWTS-1 classes. In addition, MCAS Yuma is the base for tenant F-35 and AV-8 squadrons which are highly susceptible to being damaged by foreign objects. This requirement is critical to safe flight operations for USMC operational squadrons. It is the Government's intent to negotiate similar, if not the same, pricing for the bridge as that of the current contract. 6. Description of Efforts Made to Solicit Offers from as Many Offerors as Practicable. This J&A will be posted within FedBizOps in accordance with FAR 6.305. No additional market research was conducted because it is not practicable, given the time constraints and unusual or compelling urgency as implemented in DFARS PGI 206.302-2, for any company other than Trex Enterprises Corporation to provide the required service. 7. Determination of Fair and Reasonable Cost. The Contracting Officer has determined the anticipated cost to the Government of the services covered by this J&A will be fair and reasonable, based on historical cost of lease services over the prior years. 8. Actions to Remove Barriers to Future Competition There will not be a need for another bridge contract because NAVFAC will award and administer all future vehicle lease contracts.
