A -- Kodiak Launch Complex Launch Operations Support

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) intends to award a sole source Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF)/Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract to Alaska Aerospace Development Corporation (AADC), Anchorage, AK, for spaceport facilities, range services, communications and/or equipment as required to support Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) vehicle launches at the Kodiak Launch Complex in Kodiak, Alaska. The proposed contract is a follow-on award to MDA Contract HQ0006-03-D-0043 with AADC for BMDS support at the KLC. The current contract's period of performance expires on August 31, 2008. The anticipated award date for the proposed contract is August 31, 2008 to ensure no break in service. The estimated period of performance is five years: one two-year base and three one-year options. The estimated contract value is $100M. The service is being considered for sole source on the basis of FAR 6.302-1(a)(2), which states that 'When the supplies or services required by the agency are available from only one responsible source ... and no other type of supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements, full and open competition need not be provided for.' The KLC's unique combination of geography and capability is unavailable at any other land-based location in the Northern Region of the BMDS Pacific Test Bed. There are no other options currently available for long-range target launches from Northern Pacific for specific engagement scenarios. AADC has management authority of the KLC per Alaska Statute, and removal of AADC as KLC operator would require a change to the Alaskan Legislation. Award to any other source would result in a substantial duplication of cost and unacceptable delays in fulfilling the Agency's requirement. Numbered Note 22 Applies.
