The Government intends to keep the performance period of the bridge contract as short as possible; however, the contract will also include FAR Clause 52.217-8, Option to Extend Services to provide maximum protection against any unforeseen event. The anticipated bridge contract to Akima Facilities Management, LLC is to provide Base Operating Mission Support services for the 47th Flying Training Wing located at Laughlin AFB in Del Rio, TX.

Multiple PWS requirement changes, a delayed release of the RFP due to a significant amount of pre-award questions from Industry, the RFP submittal date extended twice, and a higher-than-anticipated number of proposals submitted, resulted in a delay in award of the follow-on requirement contract. The bridge contract is necessary to continue the critical requirement and meet the AETC Laughlin AFB Operational Support mission, while the recompete is in process.
