NOTICE OF NAVY FINANCIAL IMPROVEMENT AND AUDIT READINESS (FIAR) CONTRACT SOLE SOURCE MODIFICATION

Booz Allen Hamilton, McLean, VA (N00189-10-D-Z027); is being awarded a modification for an increase in the maximum ceiling of its Multiple Award Contract (MAC). The increased ceiling will be utilized during the existing ordering period, which ends 31 March 2017, and is necessary to cover essential services while follow-on MACs are being processed. The MACs cover Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) services and audit response support. Each of these MACs is a hybrid Fixed Price / Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) type, Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts. During the existing ordering period, individual task orders will be processed in accordance with FAR 16.505; therefore, no funding will be obligated in the modification since actual increases to the contract will be based upon the issuance of individual task order awards. Task orders will be funded with mainly Navy Operation and Maintenance and/or Navy Working Capital type funds. Although the MACs resulted from full and open competition; this modification is being issued in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) since the services are highly specialized; and it is likely that awarding task orders to other than current MAC holders would result in substantial duplication of cost to the Government that is not expected to be recovered through competition, and would result in unacceptable delays in meeting pressing FIAR milestones. The NAVSUP FLC POC for this synopsis is Mr. David Gagliardi, Code 260.1A. Phone: 215-697-9692; E-mail: [email protected].
