Contract SP3300-15-C-0030 is currently in place with Interstate Underground Warehouse and Industrial Park for the above services. The contract period of performance ends 14 April 2017. It would cost the Government $957,400 to move the current stock of MREs from Interstate and store them at another location. DLA Distribution Contracting Office located at New Cumberland, PA intends to make an award on a sole source basis to Interstate Underground Warehouse and Industrial Park for a period of three (3) years in order to ensure no break in services is incurred. In accordance with FAR 13.501(a)(1)(i) , if another award was made for these services, the Government would incur substantial duplication of cost. The award will provide uninterrupted service. Interstate Underground Warehouse and Industrial Park is currently providing the service in a satisfactory manner and has experienced resources in place to perform the tasks required. Interstate Underground Warehouse and Industrial Park's personnel have become intimately familiar with the DLA Distribution support required to provide the services. The Government would incur significant costs to transfer the MREs to another facility. Transferring the MREs to another facility would not be logical, efficient or cost effective for the Government. In accordance with FAR 5.207(c)(16)(ii), all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency.
