Quick Summary
The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) has issued a Limited-Sources Justification (LSJ) for a 24-month extension of the Agile Web Presence II (AWP II) contract. This action, authorized under FAR 8.405-6(a)(1)(i)(A) and 8.405-6(c), is to bridge the gap until a future competitive acquisition can be awarded. This notice is not a request for proposals.
Purpose & Scope
The AWP II program provides continued operations and sustainment for "The Globe," NGA's enterprise-wide, centralized web-based capability for the discovery of NGA products, services, and tools. This includes m.Globe and the Discovery Catalog across Unclassified, NIPR, SIPR, JWICS, CAPNET, and Stoneghost domains within the Intelligence Community. The extension is necessary to complete requirements for a future contract designed to bundle services from other contracts and adjust to Agency direction.
Contract Details
- Type: Limited-Sources Justification for a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP) contract extension.
- Duration: 24 months, consisting of a 12-month base period and two (2) 6-month option periods.
- Period of Performance End: March 29, 2028.
- Product Service Code: DA01 (Support Services for Application Development and Support).
- Place of Performance: Springfield, VA.
Justification & Future Opportunities
The LSJ explains that the current vendor has demonstrated exceptional performance and flexibility. Awarding to another source at this time would likely result in substantial duplication of cost or unacceptable delays. NGA plans to conduct thorough market research for the follow-on competitive contract, including issuing an RFI, holding an industry day, and conducting one-on-one discussions with vendors. This indicates that while this extension is limited-source, future opportunities for competitive acquisitions are planned.
