R--Modify to Extend Installation Support Services Period of Performance

This synopsis is notification of the Governments intent to modify its Installation Support Services Contract at Fort Irwin, California, Contract Number DAKF04-00-C-0002 to extend the period of performance from 01 October 2010 through 30 September 2011. This increase has become necessary due to unanticipated delays in the ongoing pre-award process for a follow-on contract. Without this modification, Fort Irwin will have no contract vehicle in place and a delay would adversely impact Fort Irwins ability to meet critical installation support services during the re-solicitation of the follow-on contract. A determination not to compete this requirement is anticipated to be made pursuant to 10 U.S.C 2304 (C) (1) and FAR 6.302-1. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals or a solicitation for offers. No award will be placed solely on the basis of this notice, since synopsis of intent to place an order cannot be considered a request for proposals or offers. Responses to this notice will be used to determine if bonafide competition exists and whether a request for proposal is appropriate or feasible. Response to this notice must be made within 7 calendar days after the posted date. Fort Irwins new competitive follow-on contract is currently being prepared by the MICC-Yuma Directorate of Contracting, for a base plus four one year option periods. A sources sought notice will be posted to www.FBO.gov.
